TASTING NOTES This lovely dessert wine has intriguing layers of baked apples
and peaches interwoven with beeswax, honey and chamomile.
The texture is full, with a lovely uptick of acid to balance the
finish, not unlike lemon curd. The French oak adds a beautiful
vanilla note. A lovely dessert all on its own, or pairs well with a
cheese course or an apple tart.
