Natalie's Score: 87/100

Pretty and soft post-prandial sipper: no acidity that's discernible. Floral and fragrant like honey blossoms. This Romanian white wine is made form the Grasa grape and it offers attractive notes toasted almonds and ripe apricot. This botrytis-affected wine pairs well with Stilton and biscotti.

Food pairings: after dinner finger foods.

Reviews and Ratings

This Romanian dessert wine is made from the Grasa grape, which is only planted in 450 hectares of vineyards in Romania. Although Grasa is used to make both dry and sweet-style wines, this wine is a dessert wine made with botrytis-affected grapes to produce a semi-sweet style. Pair it with dark chocolate or soft blue cheeses. - Community Wine Reviews
