Quite stunning aromatics. Absolutely bursting with honeyed orchard fruit, elderflower, dried orange peel, and baking spice. Tense citrus acidity and subtle forest floor add freshness and interest to the long finish. Drink or hold.

Fantastic stuff. Some of the best dessert wine we've ever had. Really well balanced sweetness vs. acidity with dreamy apricot, pear & harvest fruit notes.

This is just a fantastic dessert wine with a rich nose & vibrant palate of lovely fresh honeyed apricot & tropical fruit/citrus notes. Continues on long finish with the citric acidity tingling on your tongue. The sweetness is effortlessly balanced by a very strong (but pleasant) natural acidity from the petit manseng grape. (If anything, the sweetness is needed to balance the acidity rather than vice-versa.)
I've tried this on several occasions, and it is simply one of the best dessert wines I've ever had (and I'm quite partial to the genre).

Good dessert wine. Flavors and nose were there, but didn't get the acid I was hoping for...
