Description
It won't take you long to warm up to this Coldhearted Icewine. Crafted from one of Ontario's prime grapes, Riesling, this will suggest aromas and flavours of ripe peach, cantaloupe, spice, fresh lemon curd and honey that will sweet you off your feet (and yes, we meant 'sweet'). Rich and lush with impressive balance and a pulsating acidity that drives the whole.

Tasting Notes
This attractively perfumed Icewine is a liquid golden colour in the glass, and serves up 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, or mix it with equal parts sparkling wine for a lively cocktail. (VINTAGES panel, Nov. 2012)
