Donald Ziraldo, one of the iconic founding fathers of Canadian Icewine, is the winemaking consultant here. TASTING NOTE: Intensely expressive nose of poached pear, lemon pie filling, marmalade, mango and caramel apple. Brilliant ribbon of acidity cuts through the sweetness nicely, bringing refreshment and zip. Long, elegant finish. Enjoy with aged cheeses, apple strudel, or alongside fresh fruit and a scoop of sorbet. (Vintages panel, March 2012) |
