Where to get Ice Wine

2009 Mar 3
Ice Wine is most often one of "those items" that accompany a special meal such as Easter, Thanksgiving or Christmas... in our case the recent occasion was Valentines.
Ice Wine, is always a great accompaniment to a decadent dessert... this year we mixed it up a little, and had a simple cheesecake and went with Waupoos Maple Ice (2006). Labeled as a mix of Vidal Ice Wine infused with PECounty Maple Syrup (actually from the family farm & sugar bush right across the street from the Winery).
This was a great ice wine... smooth and sweet, but not overpowering. The mixture of the two flavours complimented each other nicely... if I see other infused ice wines in the future, I might try them as well.
I enjoyed Maple Ice so much I will be looking for another bottle on my next visit to the Waupoos Winery.

NOTE: According to the Waupoos Website www.waupooswinery.com the 2007 vintage is based on Geisenheim Grapes... curious to discover the differences.
