Critic Review: "A sweet taste of honey, lemon, pear, and apple. Serves as a great palate cleanser. Can be enjoyed during or after a meal. Pairs perfectly with spicy vegetarian dishes such as falafel. Aroma of pear, apricot, and petunias. Medium bodied, sweet." - Nathan Lapin

Personal Review: This bottle of wine belongs to my friend at JMU that I just visited this weekend and he had me try a variety of different wines from the winery he worked at for years. This bottle of wine had some aromas of floralness and a little fruity. When I first tasted this wine, I tasted hints of mango and some other citrus fruit that I could describe as orange. It was definitely very sweet to me, and I enjoyed it very much.
