Vintage Cellar Review: Very clean, with lemon, mineral and honey aromas that follow through to a medium body. Shows vanilla, apple and melon flavors, with a medium finish. Lightly sweet.
My Review: I knew what was coming looking at a white wine at the end of a bunch of reds, and my hunches were correct. The smell was not as sweet as I thought it would be, it smelled more like gasoline mixed with honey. The taste though was clawingly sweet. I wouldn't even pair this with a dessert, I would make it the dessert. I didn't overall like it, I think taking something lemony, and adding that much sugar is a recipe for some lemondae I will just pass on.
