Tasting - Jam Jar


Jam Jar
Sweet White
South Africa
2011
$8.95

Wine review: Soft floral hints add depth to the otherwise straightforward ripe peach and nectarine aromas. There's a good balance in the mouth, with a nice acidic lift and slightly lime edge to cut the sweetness on the finish and close with the faintest hint of honeydew melons.

My review: Clear pink and plum color. Sweet and floral aroma on the nose. Sweet plum, peach, and sweet apple components on the palate which provide medium bodied with medium finish wine. Sweet grape and apple with hint of dry and acidity at the end are well balanced, so that the wine is sweet, but well balanced with acidic and dry finish. It will be a very good appetizer wine with light snacks like light cheese, chocolate dipped strawberry, and just plain dark chocolate.
