Sweet / Dessert Wine
Sweet and dessert wines highlight the natural richness of ripe grapes, crafted with residual sugar that gives them smooth texture and expressive aromas. Styles range from light and aromatic to complex and age-worthy, including late-harvest, botrytised, and icewines. They often show notes of honey, tropical fruits, citrus, or stone fruits, balanced by freshness or acidity. Perfect companions for desserts, fruit-based dishes, and cheeses, they also shine as elegant aperitifs.
