Sweets
IIf you have a sweet tooth, but find Icewine a little too rich, then this is definitely the wine for you. Sweet and tangy flavours of pear and honeysuckle strike an excellent balance, and the long, gentle finish includes a refreshing orange zest.
Not quite as dense or sugary as Icewine, but exhibiting many of the same flavours and aromas, this wine will perfectly suit a variety of fruity desserts and robust cheeses.

Breads, Sweets, White Meat
Solidly in the dessert wine camp in this vintage, this checks in at 102 g/L residual sugar. Peach, apricot and ripe nectarine fruit flavors abound, with a drip of honey. It's juicy and big, but never cloying, and finishes with a suggestion of dry straw.

Chocolate cake, Soft Cheese, Sweets, Tarte tatin
This is the second vintage of Chardonnay icewine produced by Tawse, the first being in 2008. Ageing this dessert wine for 12 months in 100% new large oak barrels has resulted in aromas of vanilla, apricot, honey and a touch of oak. On the palate is caramel and a touch of smoke, followed by a surprising tart finish.

Vidal is the most popular grape variety used to make Icewine. It’s been used to make several different styles of Icewine but we like it best straight forward and intense. When you first put your nose into the glass your head is filled with thoughts of honey, apricot and flower gardens in full bloom. It coats your mouth and you feel it well after you swallow. It’s definitely sweet but the balancing acidity is telling of the care that went into its making. Aged Vidal Icewine is an acquired taste so we recommend that you enjoy it while it still has the fresh floral notes – up to about five years old.

Foie gras, Sweets, Tarte tatin
Very pretty, candied strawberry and raspberry, high-toned violets on the nose. This is an excellent example; one of the best red Icewines I've come across, without the concentrated bell pepper essence that often characterizes Icewines made as a last resort when fruit didn't ripen sufficiently to make table wine. Long finish. Well balanced. Superb. Harvested during the night at temperatures between -10° and -12°C. Juice from the frozen berries was slowly removed using a traditional wooden basket press to extract the most color possible, then settled in stainless steel tanks. The juice was fermented at cool temperatures using selected yeast to retain volatile aromatics. After a short aging period in stainless steel, the wine was settled, filtered, and bottled by gravity.
