Wine Maker Review: Sweet peach wine made from 100% juicy, ripe peaches. Sweet, rich and smooth, this sultry wine bursts with peach flavor and aroma, illuminated by a subtle spiciness in the long aromatic finish. Serve chilled. Pair with spicy or grilled foods; try over ice with mint! Alcohol 10.5%.

My Review: I really enjoyed this wine, and it was probably my second favorite of the 5 orchard fruit wines that I tasted. The nose made me think of a Georgia orchard, with ripe fresh peaches all over the place. I also liked how in the nose I picked up some cinnamon and allspice flavors, as there is nothing better than that combination in a nice cobbler. The taste didn’t disappoint either. It was very fresh, with nice sweet peach. On the finish, it did transform to have the nice spice that I was expecting from the nose. I was extremely impressed with this wine, and left the winery with a bottle of this as well.

I did not taste this wine with food.
