Wine Review: This dessert wine from Italy just blew me away when I tried it. It was a beautiful golden color. It opens with a very fragrant orange marmalade like bouquet. On the palate, this wine is full bodied, rich, and very nicely balanced. The flavor profile is a delicious ripe apricot with hints of orange marmalade mixed in as well. The finish is sweet and refreshing. I could not get enough of this spectacular dessert wine. I would pair it with slice of Dutch apple pie. Enjoy – Ken
