Lakeview Cellars GEWÜRZTRAMINER ICEWINE 2017 VQA Niagara Peninsula, Ontario
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note Producer LAKEVIEW CELLARS
This is one of 73 items (130 releases) not presented for evaluation under new LCBO policies. I purchased a bottle for assessment from the Vintages. Here is my review: Bright medium straw colour. Attractive, sweet, honeyed, gently tropical, mango-peach nose with some lemon-tinged, Seville orange marmalade notes. Sweet, medium bodied, harmonious, intense, fairly rich, very bright, ripe peach-mango-apple purée flavours with lingering, tropical-tinged, honeyed-caramel finish that shows fine fresh acidity. This new 2017 award winner has 11% alcohol and 199 g/L residual sugar. The recommended 2014 (***) with 92-points was released on June 23, 2018 at $34.95. CSPC 547703
