Tasting note

I'm generally not a fan of gifting dessert wines at Christmas because if it isn't opened for the meal it's likely going to be re-gifted. But a late-harvest wine is a very good affordable substitute for ice wine. It's about half as sweet as regular ice wine, but you still get the flavours of honey and citrus you would expect. This would be the Secret Santa gift that will make you seem like you spent more money than it seems. Most people who see the tall skinny bottle will automatically assume that it's expensive.
