"The aroma is a sweet/sour, tangerine/Mandarin orange perfume that never stops enchanting. At the palate entry the orange zest’s acidity mingles gracefully with the Cognac’s alcohol, making for delicious drinking. Satiny finish." 90-95 pts.

"Very ripe, intense aromas of fresh-off-the-vine raspberries; further aeration stimulates a trace of welcome tartness brought on by acidity that perfectly counters the concentrated ripeness. Palate entry is sweet, ripe and juicy; the midpalate is medium-bodied, ripe, sweet/sour without being jammy or overbearing. Finishes long and intensely raspberry-like." 96-100 pts.

"Medium-bodied. Anise, citrus peel, herbs, minerals. Soft, rounded texture. Plush palate with a delicate edge. Shows off rich fruit elements surrounded by beautiful aromatics. A sensational, elegant drink."

"The first sniffs scream “black currants”; further aeration brings out the scent of black currant nicely, without fanfare, jamminess or sweetness. Palate entry is tart, concentrated and curranty; the midpalate is more balanced in that the natural acids offset the intense preserves-like sweetness. Aftertaste is long, more bittersweet than sweet and luscious." 96-100 pts.

"With its beautiful sheer pink colour and sensuous bottle Nuvo exudes beauty & class. Nuvo allows people to celebrate the joy of life on a daily basis with a unique Sparkling Liqueur."

"Attractive foggy pink/rose color. The bouquet is highly perfumed with intense fragrances of orange peel, passionfruit and mango pulp, with a backnote of spice. Entry is lusciously tart and fruity, displaying an ideal balance between the alcohol base, acidity, and fruit. Finishes impeccably balanced, clean and juicy. Bravo!" 96-100 pts.

Daron Fine has a soft apple and plum taste. Enjoy it straight, mixed, or for cooking.

"First inhalations pick up nothing but sweet, beguiling ripe peach perfume; aeration expands the aroma by adding tarter scents of peach skin and pit. Palate entry is lean, tart and acidic yet ripe; the midpalate finds the acid underpinning gracefully balancing the sweet, peachy ripeness. Aftertaste is long, light-bodied and appropriately juicy." 90-95 pts.

"Deep amber-orange hue. Pungent spice and herb aromas. A smooth, mildly sweet attack leads to a medium-bodied, mildly viscous palate. Complex, lingering finish. Intense, warming and unique. A classic."

"The perfume of fresh pears is astounding. Palate entry is delicately sweet; the midpalate is ambrosial and shows a hint of tartness through all the ripe pulp. End is clean, fruity and fresh." 90-95 pts.
