Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
This complex icewine offers pronounced notes of dried strawberry, rhubarb, ripe cherries, blackberry, and marmalade with refreshing acidity and long-lasting finish. The high alcohol balances the natural sweetness. Truly exceptional.
Vineyard Notes
Harvested and pressed on December 13-15, 2016 with 42% sugars at pressing. Primarily grown at the Cathpair Vineyard in pristine Northern Kelowna, Okanagan Valley.
Winemaker Notes
Grapes were pressed frozen to yield small amounts of rich, sweet juice. The wine fermented slowly and stopped naturally with a high degree of residual sweetness.
Food Pairing Notes
Serve chilled with a platter of fruit and chocolate, or aged blue cheeses.
