Sneaking in a quickie here after Thanksgiving when we enjoyed this Canadian Icewine. We've tasted and reviewed a few of these before and they've always been a fun change of pace.
These are definitely on the sweeter side but packed with flavor and character.
Golden in the glass with nice body to it, this wine has peach and apricot flavors, surrounded by honey notes. We like enjoying these before and after meals. Price is $19.99 for a 375ml bottle.
As we've said before for Icewines, it’s difficult for us to rate them on the standard 100 point scale as we don’t have a huge context for them. For now, a thumbs up from us especially for readers who enjoy this style of wine.
Alc. 10.5%

Haven't seen this yet in our local Costco, but I think you're right not to rank it in a points system anyway. Wines should be described something along the lines of "poor - not recommended. good - recommended Excellent - highly recommended" etc
