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: Malolactic fermentation
Called second fermentation or malo for short. It is the degradation (under the effect of bacteria) of the malic acid naturally present in the wine into milder, less aggressive lactic acid. Some producers or wineries refuse this operation by "blocking the malo" (by cold and adding SO2) to keep a maximum of acidity which carries the aromas and accentuates the sensation of freshness.
