TASTING NOTE: From Inniskillin, the masters of Icewine, comes another classic. Medium yellow-gold colour leads to a nose featuring honeyed mango, lemon meringue pie, dried apricot and sweet applesauce, plus a touch of grated ginger. Sweet with terrific weight, a lovely seam of acidity, and texture. Lots of complexity and extract here. Full bodied with a long, mouthfilling finish. Enjoy as dessert itself or match it to crËme br?lČe. (Vintages panel, Sept. 2011) Price $ 69.95
