🍷 Appearance
-
Full gold to amber in colour — rich and inviting in the glass, typical of a late harvest/dessert style wine.
👃 Aromas (Nose)
-
Bright orange blossom and mandarin aromas bring freshness despite the sweetness.
-
Lifted notes of apricot and guava add a richer, more opulent aromatic layer.
👅 Palate (Taste)
-
Luscious yet balanced sweetness — described as a lighter style of “sticky” dessert wine without overwhelming sugar.
-
Flavours of mandarin, marmalade, orange zest and dried apricot give juicy citrus and dried fruit richness.
-
Viscous, almost velvety texture on the palate enhances the dessert wine experience.
🍈 Texture & Finish
-
Viscous and rich yet maintained by good natural acidity, so the wine isn’t overly cloying.
-
Finish is fruity and lively with lingering citrus-peel and dried fruit notes.
🍇 Overall Style
-
A well-balanced late harvest Verdelho — sweet and dessert-worthy but fresh and vibrant, ideal on its own or paired with dessert or soft cheeses.
