VQA Niagara Peninsula $17.00 (200550)
Lifted aromas of spice-laden lychee and tropical fruit burst from the glass of this medium-bodied and generously textured beauty. The flavours are a delicate cornucopia of fully ripened fruit—nectarine, pear, apricot and yellow peach. The finish is a gloriously well-balanced lengthy experience with the natural sweetness of the fruit balanced deftly with moderating acidity. There’s a hint of lime on the finish, as well. Lovely on its own, it also pairs perfectly with spicy Asian cuisine. Order by the case for daily home or office delivery direct from Konzelmann. (VH)
