Viticulture/Vinification
After a milder than normal start to winter, 2006 Icewine Harvest started mid January and was completed by the end of January 2007. Winemaker Bruce Nicholson was pleased with the quality which resulted from the concentration from later picking in ideal low temperatures. An excellent balance between acid and sugar means the 2006 Icewine Vintage could be one of Inniskillin's best.

Vintage Conditions
Inniskillin Icewine, recognized as one of the world’s great wines, is a gift from winter 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 below –10°C. Only a few drops of luscious nectar can be extracted from each bunch with is expertly guided through fermentation to achieve the rich and alluring specialty known as Icewine.

Tasting Notes
This Vidal Icewine displays aromas of peaches and apricots with intense fruit flavours on the palate, softened with a touch of oak aging.

Food Pairing Suggestions
Perfect on its own as a dessert, or an excellent match to fresh fruit, rich paté or fine blue veined and cream based cheese.
