Exotic notes of lychee, Asian pear and Chinese spices open this appealing bottling from the well-priced range at Anthony Road. The palate is straightforward and makes a crisp impression despite slight sweetness. Flavors of vanilla and peach persist on the medium finish. Try with swordfish served with a fruit salsa.——W.E.(12/15/2009)—— 85

Definitely sweet, but with enough fresh acidity to carry the intense, apricot-infused palate and finish up with lingering notes of quince, lime and peach. Perfect for Pad Thai.——W.E.(2/1/2009)—— 86
