Booming Canadian vineyard (~70 estates, 400+ ha), an extreme continental climate (-36 C) imposing hardy hybrid grapes. A world-renowned speciality: golden ice wines with signature notes of honey, candied apricot, yellow peach, mango and crisp acidity, a sweet-lively balance — made from frozen-harvested Vidal. Fruity Frontenac reds (cherry, plum, spice), lively Seyval Blanc and Saint-Pepin whites (citrus, white flowers). 1.
The word of the wine: Botrytis cinerea
This fungus, also called noble rot, develops during the over-ripening phase and is an ally of great sweet white wines, when it concentrates the juice of the berries. It requires the humidity of morning fogs and beautiful sunny days, gives musts very rich in sugar and brings to the wines the famous taste of "roasted".
