Inniskillin Cabernet Franc Ice Wine

Inniskillin Icewine, recognized as one of the world’s great wines, is truly winter’s gift to wine lovers. Harvested at the pinnacle of Canada’s crisp winter, the grapes are naturally frozen on the vine and picked when the temperature drops to -10 degrees C. Only a few drops of luscious nectar can be squeezed from each bunch, which is then expertly guided through fermentation to achieve this rich and alluring specialty wine. This Niagara River appellation wine opens with characteristics of strawberry, raspberry and rhubarb dominate the nose while the palate shows a robust concentration of red fruits as well, all of which complemented by a well-balanced acidity. Pairs well with salted dark chocolate, chocolate mousse with fresh berries, strawberry rhubarb pie and porcini dusted rib eye. Serve chilled.
