Review "Assertive, extremely sugary sweet flavors have an equally extreme juicy acidity to balance them out. Musky herb, orange blossom and rose water mingle with lemon drop and apple turnover flavors. Very intense and delicious. Scheurebe. Drink now through 2014. 1,200 cases made."

Review "(21% residual sugar) Pale yellow-gold. Peach and apricot nectar and honey on the sightly high-toned nose.
