Description Here’s a wine you’d usually find in the dessert wines catagory with sweetness levels that can top out around 14 –16. It is usually found in half-bottles, and with a label that says “Select Late Harvest”. Mountain Road has designed this little sweetie on the lighter side, at about half the sweetness of a normal S.L.H. (7.2), and as a bonus they have put it into a 750ml bottle, making it even a better bargain for the price. Nice for dessert, aperitif, or even to cut the spiciness of the orient down to size (as we here at OntarioWineReview found out). A Great nose of honey, candied fruit and Christmas cake; while the tastes ranged from all the melon varieties like cantaloupe, honeydew, and casaba to light honey. This is quite an enjoyable wine for all occasions – and the price for this kind of wine can’t be beat – enjoy!
