Tasting profile (AI-generated)
Structure: full-bodied, low tannin, high acidity, sweet
A classic Niagara Icewine from Vidal Blanc, the workhorse grape of Canadian icewine production — this is intensely sweet and viscous, loaded with peach nectar and apricot jam, yet kept lively and fresh by the variety's characteristically bracing acidity. The cold Ontario winters concentrate sugars to extraordinary levels while preserving that tension between richness and brightness. Serve in small pours; a little goes a very long way.

Vidal Blanc
Vidal Blanc is a white hybrid grape bred in France, crossing a Vitis vinifera parent with a hardy North American hybrid, which gives it the winter toughness that made it a star of cold-climate winemaking.
