My Review: On the nose, got a lot of citrus and subtle fruit flavors. It was more along the lines of an orange-flavored air-freshener, rather than smelling a freshly peeled orange. The taste, however, was so awesome. It reminded me of Kohr Bros orange/vanilla custard from Ocean City, and brought me back to my childhood. It was great, and it finished with a very smooth and pleasant finish. Definitely was not expecting that from this wine, but loved it and would buy it again, even at almost $14. Great wine in my opinion!
