Winemaker's Notes: The Aphrodite has a lot of fruit on the nose, peach, apricot, and lichee, reminiscent of Gewurztraminer. Some spice like cinnamon brings even more complexity to the nose. In the palate, the acidity balances perfectly with the sweetness. A hint of honey in the middle of the palate gives a floral note to the wine and complements a long finish. Overall, it is a very elegant wine that pairs well with foie gras and light and fruity desserts like creme brulee, peach or apricot pie, or even cheese cake.
