Mission Hill Reserve Riesling Ice Wine 2003/2004 37.5cl Code: Country: Region: Category: Barcode: Canada Okanagan Valley Dessert Wine 776545995599 Description: Dessert Wine. Luscious aromas of honeycomb, apricot and key lime seduce your palate with mouth filling richness. Beautifully balanced by vibrant acidity, this honeyed sweetness is a rare nectar that will delight your senses. Background: Naturally frozen on the vine, grapes destined for Icewine production are painstakingly hand harvested at temperatures of -8 C or colder. As the frozen grapes are pressed, only a few precious drops of concentrated juice are obtained. At Mission Hill Family Estate, Icewine isn't made every year. At Mission Hill they wait for Mother Nature's blessing. Under the watchful eye of winemaker John Simes, the grapes are harvested and turned into a delicately balanced aromatic wine. Technically challenging, time consuming and very risky, Icewine is truly an art and is considered to be a delicacy worldwide.
