Tasting profile (AI-generated)
Structure: full-bodied, low tannin, high acidity, sweet
This Ohio ice wine from Ferrante showcases the classic character of Vidal Blanc harvested at extreme ripeness — intensely sweet with rich apricot and honey flavors balanced by the grape's naturally bracing acidity, preventing it from feeling cloying. Grand River Valley's cold winters make it well-suited to ice wine production, and Vidal Blanc's thick skin handles the freeze reliably, yielding a concentrated, syrupy nectar. Sip it slowly in a small pour alongside a rich blue cheese or a simple fruit dessert, and it delivers a satisfying, uncomplicated sweetness.
