VIDAL ICEWINE 2016 VQA Niagara Peninsula, Ontario |
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
SUE-ANN STAFF |
One of 69 items (56% of 123 releases) not presented for evaluation under new LCBO policies. Any item not tasted is assigned an interim ZERO-STAR (-) rating and an interim 0-POINT proxy score until properly assessed. The 2016 last appeared in Vintages (**+) on July 5, 2015 at $24.95 and was an Explorer Selection. Here is my previous note: Light yellow colour. Intense, sweet, complex, Seville orange marmalade nose. Very sweet, viscous, medium-full bodied, dense, spicy, buttery-caramel flavours with a lingering finish. According to the LCBO , the 2016 has 10% alcohol and 225 g/L residual sugar. |
