Ice wine is one of the cleanest styles of dessert wines, and Canada produces some of the best in the world. Peller has one of the best reputations in particular for their Riesling and Vidal. This is one of our favourite styles of dessert wine. Peller Ice Wine Vidal is an absolute must-try for those who appreciate the finer things in life. This exceptional wine is crafted in the Niagara Peninsula of Ontario, Canada, where the unique climate conditions create the ideal environment for producing the highest quality Ice Wine. Peller Ice Wine Vidal is made from 100% Vidal grapes, which are carefully handpicked in the middle of the night when the temperature drops below -10°C. The grapes are then gently pressed while still frozen, resulting in a highly concentrated and intensely flavorful juice. The winemaking process of Peller Ice Wine Vidal is a true art form, with the juice being fermented slowly and aged for several months in stainless steel tanks to preserve the wine’s delicate and complex flavors. The resulting wine is a masterpiece of balance and complexity, with aromas of honey, apricot, and tropical fruits on the nose. On the palate, Peller Ice Wine Vidal is rich, luscious, and intensely sweet, with flavors of candied citrus, honeycomb, and caramelized pear. The acidity is perfectly balanced, providing a bright, refreshing finish that lingers on the palate. Food pairing suggestion: Best paired with a rich, decadent dessert, such as banana and chocolate tarte tatin.
