Sweet rewards not limited to desserts
Given our national love of desserts, it's surprising that sweet or
dessert wines are not more popular. It may be that consumers think that
if they're spending $30-plus on a bottle of wine it should be bigger
than the 375ml bottle that dessert wines often are.
And why are they this size? Sweet wines are complicated beasts to get right, needing certain weather patterns to allow the grapes an extended level of ripeness, and the ongoing winemaking process is and fraught with a high degree of difficulty.

2010 Sauvignon Blanc Prestige Collection Hawke's Bay
Pale hazy yellow with a green tinge. Fascinating oily aromas of lime, white pepper and minerals. Supple, rich and intense in the mouth, but not as complex as the nose suggests. Shows a strong note of curry powder and a hint of sweetness. Finishes a bit spiky but this distinctive wine boasts good texture. 88

Wine by Jo Burzynska - Made in Japan
Perfumed Alternative - Flying Sheep Gewurztraminer 2010
Established by Japanese wine lover, Taizo Osawa, Osawa Wine's
exotically scented gewürztraminer with its notes of ginger and rose over
opulently textured stonefruit with a fresh citrus zest edge, could rover an
appropriate alternative to a present of perfume.
