Northern Lights Estate Seduction Strawberry Rhubarb Wine NV

British Columbia, CanadaNot unlike an off-dry rosé, this is particularly sweet but with a twist of citrus in the finish to keep it from being cloying. A rhubarb red blush in the glass, it shows opulent tropical fruit notes with some of the spicy litchi notes you find in gewürztraminer. Anything spicy would work here given the sweetness, but I am leaning towards spicy sausage, or even a spicy chicken curry. It could work with cake and fruit desserts. Seduction was a Best in Category (Fruit, Honey, Dessert wines) at the BC Best of Varietal Competition 2016 and a gold medal winner at the 2016 All Canadian Wine Championships.Tasted: 05 November 2018Tasted by: Prices:
