Wine Review: This Ice Wine made from Vidal Blanc is consistently one of our favorite dessert wine options every year. This golden yellow colored wine opens with an attractive apricot and honey like bouquet. On the palate, this full bodied wine is rich, creamy, and balanced with delicious sweet apricot flavors. There are notes of honey as well. The panel would pair this elegant offering sliced green apples. Enjoy - KWGTP

Winemaker Notes: A ripe apricot nose starts off this rich, fruity dessert wine and continues through to the finish. Slight hazelnut overtones mix with pineapple to create a truly unique taste. The finish lingers, but also lifts, leaving only the fruit flavors with a hint of sweetness.
