Erie Shore Vineyard 2008 Cabernet Fire & Ice
This fortified wine takes it's name from the burn and the pleasure it delivers in the mouth. It's a mix of Cabernet Franc icewine and late harvest wine fortified with alcohol to 21%. It has a sweet beginning with a real spicy finish, and a hint of burn going down. Harvey Hollingshead, owner and winemaker, says that this is a "winter wine" good for growing hair on your chest and warming the cockles of your being on a cold winter's night. And I would have to fully agree - this is a lot of fun ...

Strewn 2007 Winter Red
An icewine that never made it, that’s the story behind this red sweetie. By the time they were ready to press these Cabernet Franc grapes the temperature had warmed up so that the ensuing juice could no longer be made into icewine. So when nature gives you lemons, make lemonade, or in this case: when nature turns up the heat make a late harvest – and that’s exactly what they did. Strawberry fans should adore this sweetie because both the nose and taste are big on the strawberry side – very yu...

Chateau des Charmes 2006 Savagnin Icewine
This one’s for those who think they’ve seen it all when it comes to icewine – and I would have to put myself into that category as well – until now. This wine is made from the Savagnin grape, a curiosity in the wine world. It is grown mainly in a small corner of Eastern France called the Jura, and is the primary grape used in vin jaune. Believe it or not, it’s also a distant relative of the Pinot Noir grape … all very interesting of course, but the more interesting thing you’re probably wonde...

Cattail Creek 2008 Select Late Harvest Meritage
Here’s a different kind of sweetie that is rarely seen – a blend. Usually, icewine and/or late harvest wines are made up from one single varietal: Riesling, Vidal, Cabernet Franc, etc, but this one has three reds mixed up in it: Cabernet Franc (50%), Merlot (30%) and Cabernet Sauvignon (20%). The smells are sweet ripe and sugared red berries and cherries, while the taste delivers the sweet cherry, strawberry and hits of raspberry to the palate. The balance between sugar and acidity will have...
