San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition
TEXSOM International Wine Awards
“Bright pale silvery emerald straw color. Lively, floral, fruity aromas and flavors of orange blossoms, peach custard, and nougat with an even, lively, petillant, moderately sweet medium-full body and a tingling, complex, medium-length golden raisin and ripe apricot finish with fruit tannins and no oak. An attractive muscat dessert wine with a nice creaminess.”
Winemaker Challenge International Wine Competition
California State Fair Wine Competition
Tasting Panel Magazine
“Light straw color. Bright, fruity, floral aromas of honeysuckle, peaches, and potpourri with a supple, tangy, fruity sweet medium body and a warming, amusing, breezy lemon sorbet and apple sauce finish with fruit tannins and no oak. A tasty and easy drinking off-dry sipper.”
Critics Challenge Wine Competition
“Floral, grapefruity aromas and sweet honey and peach flavors make this a very effusive and fruity wine. Though rich with flavor it's not cloying and is light bodied.”
San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition
“Aromas of lemon balm, peach and dusty apple with a round, fruity medium body and and a tangy clementine and earth finish. Nice complexity and off-dry style. Will be great for all occasions.”
“This straddles the border between an off-dry table wine and a dessert wine. It's crisp in acidity, with candied orange, golden apricot and honey flavors. You could certainly drink it with cookies and fruits, but it's just dry enough to stand up to squash baked with brown sugar, and a piece of grilled chicken.”
“The honeycomb, spice, citrus zest and baked apple notes are spicy and round, with a juicy edge on the finish.”
California State Fair Wine Competition
San Francisco International Wine Competition
“Spritzy, bright and aromatic with sweet, spicy peach and orange blossom; juicy, creamy and balanced.”
