CELINE DION CELLARS CABERNET SAUVIGNON ICEWINE 2013 VQA Niagara Peninsula |
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
Diamond Estate Wines |
Medium light red colour. Attractive, intense, strawberry jam nose. Very sweet, medium bodied, honeyed, spicy, intense, ripe strawberry-plum-cherry puree flavours with a lingering, slightly caramel-tinged finish. Very tasty albeit not inexpensive. Has 11% alcohol and 204 g/L residual sugar. Despite what it says on the label, this is not made at Celion Dion Cellars (there is no such place) but rather by Niagara Cellars Ltd. aka Diamond Estates Wines. |

TASTING NOTE: Celine Dion joins the ranks of fellow musicians Madonna, the Rolling Stones, and KISS in developing her own stable of wines. Reminiscent of strawberry and milk chocolate in the glass, this Icewine begins with sweet strawberry preserves on the palate, then bright acidity builds and cleanses the finish.
