2007 Vidal Icewine

"

Opulent yet graceful, intense yet caressing, viscous yet never heavy, the impression is one of the fresh, ripe juiciness with a lingering aftertaste of mango and tangerine.

Bud burst occurred several days ahead of normal, with less rain than usual. The weather turned cool and wet in June resulting in very small fruit set and limited yields but allowing for more concentrated flavours. Temperatures from summer through fall were about long-term average but cooler than the past two years in the Okanagan.

To maximize flavour potential, we opened canopies where necessary exposing grapes to more sunlight and allowing fruit flavours and tannins to ripen fully. Harvest began in mid-September and finished within the first week of November.
