| Silver Medal winner at the 2012 Royal Agricultural Winter Fair, a prestigious competition now in its 90th year. TASTING NOTE: Bountiful fragrances of honeysuckle, tangerine and peach, clementine, mango, pear and ripe pineapple. Mouthfilling and generously sweet with nervy acidity bringing perfect balance. There s some tangy lemon zest on the finish. A rousing success that shows why Riesling Icewine from Ontario is so enchanting. Savour with spicy spring rolls or freshly sliced melon.
