Ontario Icewine (106)Brrr... Picking grapes in the middle of a Canadian winter night, what could be more fun than that? Bundle up to see how frozen Vidal and Riesling grapes turn into Canada's premium dessert Icewine, fast becoming an international favorite. Then select an Icewine that's older vintage or has been aged in oak barrels--and add it to several dishes for a decadent meal.
