A very nice version of what is becoming an icewine staple. It used to be just Vidal and Riesling were the icewine grapes of choice for winemakers, but slowly but surely Cabernet Franc is making a regular appearance and showing up those white grapes with it's red fruit offerings. This wine meshes chocolate with strawberry-rhubarb pie along with hints of cherry, apricot and of course all are honey coated. Price: $59.95 - Rating: **** 1/2
