Winemaker's Notes

Estate-Grown
Sweet White Wine
Our Ice Wine 2008 was hand picked at the winery vineyards on December 8, 2008 capturing the sweet fall essences of the St. Pepin grapes. Each year weather conditions dictate if we are able to attain an ice wine and press the grapes frozen, keeping the intense sweet grape flavors. The frozen grapes had harvest sugar of 34.9 degrees brix and were fermented slowly to 12% alcohol. The residual sugar of 15.6 degrees brix and nuances of honey and orange zest combine for a special treat.
Serve icy cold with dessert.
