Wine Review: This light goldenrod colored dessert wine opens with a very fragrant orange marmalade and ripe apricot bouquet. On the palate, this wine is full bodied, slightly viscous and sweet. Like the nose, the flavor profile is a ripe apricot and orange marmalade blend with notes of honey, quince and peaches. The finish remains sweet and its flavors show nice length. This wine could be dessert all by itself. With food, it would also pair well with macaroon cookies. Enjoy - Ken
