VIDAL ICEWINE 2016 VQA Niagara Peninsula, With Gift Box |
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
LAKEVIEW CELLARS |
A REPEAT - here is my previous note: Bright light yellow colour. Lush, intense, attractive, sweet, honeyed, caramel-tinged , tropical-tinged, cirtusy nose. Sweet, medium bodied, balanced, intense, honeyed, ripe apple-pear purée and Seville orange marmalade flavours with a lingering, spicy, bright, toffee-caramel finish. Delicious and ready-to-drink - excellent value. TONY ASPLER / BEST BUY / 91-points - The best value icewine you’re going to find is a 200 mL bottle of Lakeview Cellars Vidal Icewine. This award-winning Icewine is old gold in colour with an intense nose of ripe peach and pineapple with honeyed tones. Medium-bodied, its unctuous sweetness is balanced by piercing lemony acidity that carries the succulent peach and pineapple flavours to a long, lingering finish. A dessert in a glass. Has 11.5% alcohol and 166 g/L residual sugar with lot number 032618 on the lower part of the glass bottle. |
