Jasmine, honey, apricot and lime flavors race along the racy structure in this laserlike dessert wine. Complex and compact, lingering on the finish with force. Drink now through 2032. 15 cases imported. ... More details

The tender Riesling grapes for this Icewine were picked in Niagara-on-the-Lake when the temperature first dipped to -10°C. After each grape was pressed while still frozen to release its individual drop of pure extract, the juices were fermented at a cool temperature to retain fruit concentration before aging in stainless steel tanks. This wine's fruit flavours of orange, nectarine and lemon drop make it a wonderful choice for mixing with vodka into an Icewine Martini. It's also delicious with rich paté, foie gras, creamy blue cheeses, Manchego and aged Canadian cheddar. With the dessert course, it's a natural match for lemon pound cake, apple strudel, pineapple upside cake and poached pears. Enjoy now through 2018 in small white wine glasses at a well chilled 8 to 10°C.

Winery Peller Estates

Country: Canada

In Canada, wines are produced in many different parts of the country, and there are major vineyards everywhere from Ontario, British Columbia, southern Quebec and Nova Scotia. Canadian wineries have been producing wine for over two hundred years now, and the Canadian wine industry has seen significant development and expansion over the past couple of decades, when the unique attributes of the country's produce began to find popularity overseas. The most widely admired Canadian wines are ice wines, which are made using grapes which have been allowed to freeze during the early frosts. This process intensifies the flavors and sweetness of the grapes, resulting in highly characterful wines with distinctive properties, and works extremely well with the grape varietals which flourish in the cooler climate of the country.
