Ice wine

What is the ice wine ?

Ice wine is made by freezing grapes before pressing. The freezing process increases the grapes' natural sugars and allows them to produce their own yeast, further increasing the sweetness of the final product. It contains approximately 30 % of sugar and is sweet enough to be considered a liqueur. In short, ice wine can be stored at room temperature and is considered a wine for special occasions.

Although the process of making ice wine can be difficult, Canada has successfully produced many ice wines that are considered worldwide to be one of a kind.

Canadian Ice Wine

Canada is one of the largest producers of ice wine in the world, but it wasn't initially very popular because it wasn't very popular with the local population. So, Canadian producers looked beyond their borders and began exporting ice wine to foreign markets.

Canadian Icewine was first produced in 1972 in Quebec, Canada, by a Canadian producer. He used maple syrup as a sweetener and introduced a method that allowed for more sugar to be released during the process.

Quality ice wine

Ice wine is a dessert wine and, as such, is consumed after main courses or with desserts. Ice wines have a high acid content and therefore a lower pH than other wines. They benefit from the VQA designation of "vin de pays," which is similar to the European Union's PDO.

This characteristic gives them a greater potential for acidic taste and they also develop more fruity aromas. Due to its low alcohol content (7-10% ABV), ice wine contains less residual sugar than most table wines. Now, discover our selection and enjoy these best Canadian ice wines!
