KONZELMANN |
| Fairly deep orange yellow colour. Very intense, sweet, honeyed, caramel nose with some corn syrup notes. Very sweet, medium to medium-full bodied, smooth, intense, faintly spicy, rich, canned peach flavours with a lingering, caramel-driven, refreshing, high acid finish. A repeat of the 2010 (***) released on October 26, 2013 release. |

| This is the second LG Award for the 2010 Vidal Icewine. No stranger to rave reviews, this wine's championship pedigree includes the 2006 vintage earning a spot on the prestigious Wine Spectator Top #100 list for 2008. A recipient of the 2013 Lieutenant Governor's Award for Excellence in Ontario Wine. TASTING NOTE: This was an Ontario Lt-Governor's Award winner in 2013, one of a dozen wines honoured in a field of 225 entries. It pours deep, bright gold. The nose is terrific with rich papaya, canned peach and toffee aromas. It's full bodied, thick, very sweet and unctuous, with just enough acidity holding it together. The flavour depth is quite incredible. Best over the next five years. Score - 90 (David Lawrason, winealign.com, July 11, 2013) |
