Wine Pairing

Description: Icewine is made from grapes that have been left on the vine until the temperatures drop below freezing and the water inside the grapes has frozen. The result is a rich, intensely sweet wine with flavours of apricot, peach, and honey, and a luscious, unctuous texture.

Pairing: When pairing a dessert with a wine, choose a wine that is at least as sweet as the dessert you are serving or your wine will taste a little bitter. The rich texture of the wine balances the creamy, rich dessert, and the luscious, sweet flavours are in balance with the sweetness of the dessert.

Wine suggestion: Try an Icewine from Niagara Peninsula, Canada
