Icewine is made by freezing grapes before pressing them. The freezing process increases the grapes' natural sugars and allows them to produce their own yeast. This further increases the sweetness of the final product. It contains about 30 % of sugar and is sweet enough to be considered a liqueur. In short, Icewine can be stored at room temperature and is considered a wine for special occasions.
Although the process of making Icewine can be difficult, Canada has successfully produced many Icewines that are considered one-of-a-kind wines around the world.

Quality Icewine
Icewine is a dessert wine and as such is consumed after main courses or with desserts. Icewines have a high acid content and therefore have a lower pH than other wines. They benefit from the VQA appellation of "vin de pays", which is similar to the PDO of the European Union.
This characteristic gives them a greater potential for acid 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 Icewines!
