Notes
-----
This is a late-harvest sweet wine, but it's not as sweet as
I'd like a dessert wine to be. The color is a very clear and
brilliant golden yellow. The aroma is light, with tones of
honey and apricot. The body has a nice medium-thick mouth
feel. When I first opened it, I found it to be rather
acidic, and had an almost bitter hint to it. The second day,
it had mellowed out a bit and was more drinkable. Sweet, but
not extremely sweet, it has a strong acid component that
overpowers at first. That hint of bitterness is still there.
Overall I'd say that it would be appealing to people who
prefer a medium-sweet dessert wine with lots of acidity, at
a decent price--around $10 for a half-liter bottle.
