I don’t hate sweet wines, but I don’t care for toooo sweet wines. I also think sometimes food and wine paired well, can compliment each other when otherwise it might not taste great.

I love sweets…but sweet wine? Not so much–but I will try this wine out.

Thank you so much for this post!

I too am one of those…”I hate sweet wine” types. But I must tell you Wilson Creek Winery in the Temecula Valley has a to die for wine/dessert. They call it the “Almond Joy.” They start with an edible chocolate cup, fill it 3/4 of the way with port wine and top it off with their signature “Almond Champagne.” It is definetly a sweet ending.

Rich,

Great post – yep, I hear that “I hate sweet wine” a lot. Mostly that comes from people drinking bland sweet wines with no character or remembering grandma put two spoonfuls of sugar into your favorite chardonnay.

But, there are some wonderful wines out there with a touch of sweetness and even some incredible dessert wines that still have liveliness and acid.

Thanks for satisfying the slight sweet tooth in all of us.

Cheers,

Ryan

Rich,
I’m one of those “who hates sweet wine”. But on your recommendation I will give it a go.
Thanks,
Dave
