Wine Profile

Vintage:	2006
Tasting Notes:	Inniskillin: Vidal Icewine 2006 100% Vidal grapes grown on the Niagara Peninsula, Ontario, Canada This wine shines with an alluring assortment of fresh nectarine, papaya, lychee, tangerine and orange blossoms. These exquisite fruit flavors, combined with invigorating acidity, offer multiple layers of balanced pleasure. Inniskillin: Riesling Icewine 2006 100% Riesling grapes grown on the Niagara Peninsula, Ontario, Canada Sublime aromatics of fresh lime, apricot, grapefruit and peach blossoms with a slight mineral edge. A racy interplay of sweet and tart offer up echoing flavors of lemon, lime and candied apricot. Inniskillin: Cabernet Franc Icewine 2006 100% Vidal grapes grown on the Niagara Peninsula, Ontario, Canada Cabernet Franc is an unlikely, but interesting candidate for Icewine. With its brilliant red color and rich flavors, this vintage has produced a rare and exceptional red Icewine with an abundance of primary fruit aromas on the nose, strawberries and cream on the palate and a long, smooth lingering finish. All three can be enjoyed through 2017.
Production Notes:	Making good wine is always a challenge. Throw in night time harvesting in below freezing temperatures, winemaking in the extreme cold, low yields and tricky fermentation and you get extreme winemaking. This is Canadian Icewine. To make Icewine, grapes are subjected to repeated freezing and thawing, thereby concentrating the juice to produce intense flavors and complexity. Once picked, the frozen grapes are pressed and only a few drops of sweet juice is obtained. This juice is then fermented very slowly for several months. In all Icewine, the balance of acidity and high sugar content yields an extraordinary and unique wine with intense and lively flavors unlike any other sweet dessert wine available. Icewine is winter's gift to the wine lover: one of the best-kept secrets of the wine world. This gift set is comprised of 3 Inniskillin wines. One 187ml bottle each of Vidal Icewine, Riesling Icewine and Cabernet Franc Icewine. All from the 2006 vintage.
Food Pairing:	Icewine pairs particularly well with chocolate-based desserts: warm chocolate cake, bitter or semi-sweet custards and tarts; smoky, caramelized desserts; blue-veined cheeses such as Stilton and Roquefort, Semi-soft Cambazola, soft Saga, or on its own at the end of a fine meal.
