Winemaker Notes
The grapes were hand harvested, destemmed, and crushed into stainless steel. Fermented slowly over 14 days focused on the perfect balance of acidity and natural sweetness. The wine was clarified naturally over the winter months.
A true Canadian treasure, Icewine can only be produced when the temperatures plunge below -8°C (17.6°F) and the grapes naturally freeze on the vine. The resulting juice is lusciously sweet, but also beautifully balanced with the vibrant natural acidity that BC wines have become known for!
