Dessert wine

[wondersofwine]

I ate in a Raleigh restaurant last night after flying back from Palm Springs. Saw the Bonny Doone Muscat Vin de Glacier on the menu as a dessert wine and had been wanting to try it. Very nice indeed! Seemed to have ripe nectarines and mangos on the palate. I was pretty full by dessert time so paired it with the pear sorbet. It might have been a better complement to the creme brulee or upside down caramelized banana cake.
With dinner I had Bearboat Russian River Pinot Noir at the recommendation of the chef.
Very pleasant but I didn't make any notes.
