Icon is higher tier for Nobilo. 13.5% alcohol. Imported by International Cellars, Gonzales, CA.

Old gold, almost coppery color with transparency. Nose evokes pear and tropical fruits. Taste is rich and pleasing with melange of warm fruits. Rather lengthy finish. Nice.

Maybe a little, but the Carr Pinot Gris was decidely spicier.

Ach! Silly me! This is what happens to teachers during the summer: we forget how to read!

I was assuming you were discussing the Icon Sauv Blanc...
