Palatine Hills Winery Estate 2012 Iced Wine

Variety: Vidal
Region: Niagara Peninsula, sub appellation: Niagra Lakeshore
Vintage: 2012
Colour:  Rich, golden yellow

Alcohol: 11.5%
Bouquet: Honey, baked apple crumble
Flavour: Lush, honey, burnt sugar (like on the top of creme brulee)/ caramel with a long finish. Decadent throughout without being sickly sweet. Serious stuff.
Points: 90 (4+8+12+8+8+50)
Notes:  This was a present to F who shared it to finish Friday night. I was a big fan of their Cabernet Franc  and from memory, their Meritage was pretty good as well. This was a highlight to end a tough/busy week.
