Product notes
Think texture not just sweetness! Perfect on its own; a variety of cheeses (blue veined, aged cheddar, rich cream cheeses with dried fruits); seared scallops; lobster; rich pates; fruit based desserts.
Production notes
This unique Canadian product was harvested at the height of Canada’s crisp winter. Naturally frozen on the vine and then picked when the temperature drops to a frigid -10°C. Only a small amount of concentrated nectar can be squeezed from each bunch. The juice is then slowly fermented at an average temperature of 15°C to achieve a rich, specialty wine know as Icewine.
Tasting notes
This popular Inniskillin Icewine boasts a variety of tropical fruit including orange, mango, and lemons. Flavours of peach and apricot are balanced by a fresh crisp lively acidity.
