| TASTING NOTE: The nose is apricot, pear, lemon drop with honey wrapped around everything ... on the palate there's honeyed orange-apricot and lemon, but all with great acidity keeping it from being cloying ... the finish is medium in length with lemon drop nuances and all wonderfully balanced. Score: 4.5 Stars (out of 5) (Michael Pinkus, ontariowinereview.com, Feb. 20, 2013) Lusciously Sweet |
