Description
Ideally suited to the Canadian winter season in both the Niagara Peninsula and the Okanagan Valley, the magical process of crafting Icewine is guided by nature — triggered by the snap of the wintry elements, the harvest can't begin until temperatures drop below minus eight degrees Celsius for a sustained period of time. Once the extreme temperatures arrive, Icewine pickers arrive, often in the dead of night, to harvest the frozen clusters. Slowly fermented over the coming months, this delicate nectar will eventually become Icewine. Here we have a nose of peach, apricot, and lime. Rich, sweet core of fruit on the palate and a finish of tangerine, apricot, and honey.
