2011. More pure and intense apple flavor than I could have ever imagined. An apple bullet to the brain.

Incredibly hard to describe. Very unique. Tart but sweet but not too sweet. Need to find more of this. Dessert wine that doesn't need dessert

If you have a strong dessert wine program, this should be in it. Late harvest apple cadre with resid so good and so fun.

Wonderful little dessert wine the flavours of the mcintosh apples really shine through. Perfect follow up to a nice spicy meal.

Loving this so much! Tastes like fruit roll ups for adults. Super complex and concentrated apple flavor and great with pumpkin pie!

Pretty much exactly what you'd expect. Straight up alcoholic, sweet apple juice. Kinda syrupy, but perfect with a sweet dessert (like the vanilla whoopie pie I'm currently eating.)

Scrumptious fresh apple flavor that has been super concentrated into a tawny, somewhat viscous treat. Great with cheese course. Macy's $40.

A sweet happy ending to a great meal - some Canadian Apple ice wine from the frozen reaches up north. Delicious as the forbidden apple that tempted Adam!
