Wine By Nine

Dessert, Fortified & Fruit Wine by Inniskillin from Canada. Inniskillan Icewine 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 degrees Celsius. The removal of ice crystals, separated from the frozen grapes during pressing, concentrates the juice into a delicate nectar to achieve the rich and alluring specialty known as Icewine. This vintage shines with an alluring assortment of fresh nectarine, papaya, lychee, tangerine and orange blossoms. These exquisite fruit flavors, combined with invigorating acidity, offer multiple layers of balanced pleasure. Food pairing suggestions: Fruit-based desserts based on tropical or stone fruits, citrus, pear, and apple. Pairs beautifully with Foie Gras - pan seared or terrine - and spiced Asian cuisine. Try cheeses including rich blue veined or selected cream based such as Roquefort, Saga, Cambozola, Ermite, Le Ciel de Charlevoix, le Bleu de la Moutonniere, Bleubry, Cayer, Cabrales, Devon cream and Gorgonzola.
