Definitely tastes like Angel Food Cake. Not quite a desert wine; sweet but not too sweet to drink

One of my favorite whites! Almost like a Chardonnay, but a little smoother. Has some nice vanilla and apple notes.

A friend gave me this after he said it wasn't sweet enough for him, the name of the wine being Angel Food was pretty misleading I guess. I thought it was good. The bottle said the tasting notes were of green apple and vanilla, I could see that! The front was bright and almost like a Sauvignon Blanc, but the back tastes straight up like the popcorn flavored Jelly Belly jelly beans! Which is almost off putting. I would drink this again, but probably not pay for it.

This was awful! The smell was even horrible. Very bitter and not sweet at all. Name is very misleading.

Have no idea what they meant by saying it was green Apple and vanilla. It was very grape fruit, not what we wanted.

Surprisingly does taste like Angel Food! Green Apple and toasty vanilla.

A little honey, a little pear, a little oaky. I’m a simple bitch who enjoys an easy drinking white wine so this is a slam dunk on a beautiful quarantine afternoon.

acidic- more tasty with a slight chill opposed to full on. Hints of citrus

I love this wine. A little on the sweet side but good with dessert or lunch. First tasted it at a wedding for Jim's niece.
