SLDS January BBQ: Cherry, redcurrant, some straw and pear - doesn't smell overly sweet. Quite tangy acidity on the palate to go with the medium sweet profile. Drink now, this is really enjoyable.

Sweeter than I expected but far from cloying, red approaching orange-brown in color with spicy cranberry and crushed strawberry in the nose. Sweet ripe strawberry, baked red apple and ever-so-slight prune notes. Long, baked apple finish. I liked it a lot. Like an amontadillo without the baked pruned notes.

This bottle showed no signs of age. Drank beautifully and brought smiles to several of my fellow wine lovers who had never had a Cab Franc icewine. Only wished I had served colder. Need to source more.

Cross between a tawny port and ice wine

An exceptional dessert wine! Sweet hints of rose, berries, and sugar abound. Smooth finish.
