Note: I publish batches of reviews that I call Good Values Wine Picks. These are from the regular section of the liquor store rather than the Vintages section, and tend to be lower priced and the most widely available of all wines. The last four reviews I did were: March 7, January 4, December 16 and November 20.

Tasting note:

An apricot-pineapple elixir with terrific acidity for balance. Such a wonderful after-dinner treat! Food matches: exotic fruit salad, crème caramel, Roquefort cheese, blue cheese, foie gras.

Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:
A bright, alluring, golden color hints at the elegance of this absolutely stellar Icewine. A taste of this Icewine reveals its full opulence with the richness swirling gracefully and filling the palate with an explosion of lush fruits of mango, passion-fruit, pineapple and lychees. The fruit driven sweetness is supported perfectly with the well-balanced acidity and the lavish, lingering heat.
