Super sweet, with vanilla honey, apricot preserves, tangerine tart and vanilla cream flavors. What’s not to like? Best of all is crisp, tart acidity, like a squeeze of lemon, that brightens and heightens the richness and makes it finish clean.——S.H.(9/1/2010)—— 93

A joy to drink. It’s so sweet and unctuous in honeyed apricots, citrus fruits, sauteed bananas, vanilla custard and spices, and yet so balanced with racy acidity. You could almost drink the entire bottle with some vanilla cookies, or better yet, a banana cream pie.——S.H.(12/15/2009)—— 93

For the price, this dessert wine is quite a good buy in an upscale sweetie. It shows honeyed flavors of apricots, pineapples, oranges, vanilla fudge and cinnamon spice.——S.H.(8/1/2009)—— 87
