| Chateau/Producer: | Eola Hills | | Wine Name: | Vin D'Or Late Harvest Sauvignon Blanc | | Country: | USA | | State: | Oregon | | AOC: | Oregon | | Region: | Oregon | | Wine Score: | 93 | | Notes: | Its color is a lovely rich, light-amber golden. There's a rich nose of honey and dried pineapple, vanilla, and maybe a hint of orange. This is really a very tasty dessert wine--a good dollop of sweetness, but with a core of acidity that keeps it from being cloying. Flavors of honey and citrus, pineapple and orange, with a tang to match. Definitely one to buy again in my book. | | Tasting Date: | 2005-09-30 | | Varietal: | Sauvignon Blanc | | Production Notes: | This is another one of those "faux icewines" made from frozen grapes. At least it doesn't sell itself as an icewine, just as a late harvest dessert wine. That's refreshing. | | Price US$: | 18.00 | | Source: | Calandro's (Perkins), Baton Rouge, LA |
