About the Wine

Imagine a wine so rare and luxurious, it's like nature bottled winter itself. The frozen grapes are handpicked at just the right moment, capturing an incredibly concentrated sweetness. This careful process, along with the small amount of wine produced, makes ice wine a true treasure. It’s not just a treat but a premium indulgence, perfect for those who love the finer things in life. 

Icewine, or ‘Eiswein,’ traces its origins to the frosty vineyards of Germany and Austria, with Canada now standing as a premier producer. The grapes are left on the vine well into winter, freezing naturally before being swiftly harvested and pressed. The result? A luscious, sweet wine that’s high in sugar and rich in character.

The frozen Cabernet Sauvignon grapes were picked in late December 2017 when temperatures dipped to a frosty 14ºF to 8.6ºF. The juice settled in stainless steel tanks, then underwent a cool fermentation, finishing in late February. The wine was then moved outdoors for natural cold stabilization. After 8 months in stainless steel, it was filtered and bottled.

Residual Sugar: 202 gr/lt.

Tasting Notes

100% Cabernet Sauvignon. This vibrant red wine bursts with the aromas of ripe raspberries, red cherries, and strawberries. On the palate, you'll find sweet cherry flavors mingling with jammy notes, leading to a delightful finish brimming with raspberry and strawberry. The touch of sweetness is perfectly balanced by a lively acidity, creating a harmonious blend of sweetness and spice. Serve chilled at around 54°F for the best experience. Pair this delectable wine with a fresh strawberry tart topped with whipped cream or a slice of cherry cheesecake for a heavenly treat!
