Apples and maple sugar actually. Usually I find dessert wines too sweet, but this one is just lovely. Here's the description from the site:


The classic taste of Vermont captured in wine

For over half a century the Boyden family has honored Vermont’s spring tradition of maple sugaring. Now we are pioneering a new tradition: crafting that maple sugar into an amazing dessert wine, Gold Leaf. Barrel-aged for two years in Tonnelier French Oak barrels, Gold Leaf possesses great depth and complexity combining supreme estate maple syrup and locally grown apples. As an aperitif or after-dinner wine, it has an exquisite mouth feel and delicate yet pronounced maple flavor with overtones of vanilla, toasted nuts and coconut. Gold leaf is at its best served over ice, paired with apple crisp, Cinnamon cheesecake, vanilla crème brulee.
