Chateau des Charmes Riesling Icewine 2001

Date: 6 January 2007

The wine was served straight from the wine fridge where it was stored at 14 degrees celcius. The relatively high serving temperature made the wine a little too sweet and syrupy. There was dried apricot, mineral and floral aromas. Palate was rich, round and elegant with good acidity. Flavours of marmalade, pear and apricot with a long fruity finish. It would have rated better if it was chilled more before serving.

Rating: good
