  • How to Buy Eiswein Dessert Wine
    How to Buy Eiswein Dessert Wine Eiswein is a sweet dessert wine that originated in Germany. This "late harvest" wine is traditionally pressed from grapes that are harvested after they freeze on the vine. "Eiswein" literally means "ice wine," and is called so on some labels. If you want to buy eiswein, know the country and the method that produced the bottle to find the best available "ice wine" for your budget. Does this Spark an idea? Instructions 1. o 1 Locate a local wine store or look on line for wine sellers who carry eiswein. o 2 Look for a bottle that fits your price range. German and Austrian Eisweins, which follow established methods of harvest and production, are the European gold standard. However, many less expensive, but still excellent, ice wines come from Austria, New Zealand, Slovenia, Canada and the United States. Not all producers let grapes freeze naturally before harvesting them at night. This time-honored and labor-intensive method of production, as well as the loss of all but a few drops of juice, explains the higher price of traditionally produced ice wine. Some vintners pick the grapes and then artificially freeze them before pressing. Manage Cellar, Share Tasting Notes Free, powerful, and easy to use! o 3 Pick a colorful and fragrant bouquet. Eiswein is distinguished by the contrast between its fragrant sweetness and acidity. A great eiswein is both rich and fresh. Young eisweins have tropical fruit, peach or berry overtones. Older eisweins suggest caramel or honey. Colors can range from white to rose.

These have corresponded to the implementation period of the Ontario Vintners Quality Alliance (VQA) Act in 1999 and the launch of the Winery Strategic Plan, “Poised for 1Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Pacific Agri-Food Research Greatness,” in 2002.

This paper analyzes how winery regulations, industry changes, institutions, and innovation have impacted the domestic production, consumption, and international trade, of premium quality wines. The results of the For personal use only. study highlight the regional economic impact of the wine industry in the Niagara region, the success of small/mid-sized boutique wineries producing premium quality wines for the domestic market, and the physical challenges required to improve domestic VQA wine retail distribution and bolster the international trade of wine exports. Domestic success has been attributed to the combination of natural endowments, entrepreneurial talent, established quality standards, and the adoption of improved viticulture practices.

  • Cabernet Franc VQA Niagara Peninsula 2017
    inniskillin.com ICEWINE Cabernet Franc VQA Niagara Peninsula 2017 HARVEST After a spectacular warm and dry fall the weather turned sharply cold in November, bringing the first hard frost in the first week of the month and the first freeze/thaw event shortly thereafter allowing the grapes to begin developing all the classic Icewine characteristics. Ready for harvesting in the early morning of December 14 the Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Riesling and Vidal were harvested over the next few consecutive days, as temperatures were perfect falling between -9°C to -11°C. Thanks to this early harvest, the juice was of the highest quality, with plentiful yields and excellent concentration. WINEMAKING The grapes for this Cabernet Franc Icewine were harvested from select vineyards throughout the Niagara Peninsula at a frigid temperature of -10°C. Pressed immediately, the viscous juice was cold settled for 7 days before racking and inoculating. Fermented cool for approximately 21 days the resulting wine was filtered and transferred to a stainless steel tank to await bottling. WINEMAKER'S NOTES This concentrated and vibrant Icewine is bursting with juicy fruit aromatics of strawberry and cherry with hints of fresh cream. On the palate rich layers of strawberry, raspberry and rhubarb dominate with another hint of fresh vanilla cream. This luscious Icewine has a well-balanced acidity and long fruit filled finish. FOOD PAIRINGS Chocolate mousse Chocolate covered strawberries Blueberry pudding and chocolate sauce PRODUCT INFORMATION TECHNICAL ANALYSIS Size 375 mL Alcohol/Vol 9.45 % Winemaker Bruce Nicholson pH 3.27 Residual Sugar 244 g/l Total Acidity 9.15 g/l Oak Aging NO.

Photo Credit: Eva Fricke https://www.jamessuckling.com/wine-tasting-reports/rumors-true-rheingau-back/?mc_cid=065ca5ec32&mc_eid=2fe3133b20 1/98 4.8.2017 The Rumors Are True: The Rheingau is Back - JamesSuckling.com After scoring more than 50 Rheingau GGs from Germany’s 2015 vintage last fall, I suspected that winemakers were on to something to special. “This new vintage suggests that winemakers have seriously rethought and revamped grape growing and winemaking in the region,” I wrote. Well, last month I returned to the Rheingau to score nearly 400 wines from the 2015 and 2016 vintages and, indeed, the rumors are true. The Rheingau is finally back! But first, let’s revisit that brief history on where the Rheingau has been all these years. By far the most famous wine region on the river Rhine is the Rheingau. Its steepest slopes are rather stony, with slate type soils that retain little water, but most of the vineyards have relatively deep loamy soils that are fertile and water-retentive. This makes the wines bolder and broader than those of the Mosel. Its slopes have long been dominated by aristocratic estates, some of them complete with castles like that of Schloss Johannisberg and Schloss Vollards. And for two centuries from the 1776 vintage through to that of 1976, Rheingau wines were known for world premiere high-end riesling.

    inniskillin.com DISCOVERY SERIES P3 VQA NIAGARA PENINSULA 2012 HARVEST The 2012 Harvest was spectacular. The hot, dry summer conditions delivered one of the best quality harvests for Ontario in years across all varietals. The summer conditions were reflected in what was our earliest start on record, with grapes being processed for the first time in August, and in turn, having all varieties in house before November. The ideal weather conditions delivered fully ripening fruit. The aromatic whites, Riesling and Pinot Grigio, are more varietal specific while the fruit definition for Chardonnay and Pinot Noir are simply stunning. The depth of colour and intensity of flavors are strong on the late ripening Merlot, Cabernets and Shiraz, which flourished in the hot, dry conditions. WINEMAKING These 3 Pinot varieties were picked from select vineyards throughout the Niagara Peninsula. The Pinot Noir and Pinot Blanc were fermented separately in stainless steel while the Pinot Grigio was fermented and aged in French Oak for three months for added complexity. To make the final blend the wines were then put together at a ratio of 49% Pinot Noir, 35% Pinot Grigio and 16% Pinot Blanc. WINEMAKER’S NOTES This unique blend provides citrus notes of lemon and lime, along with floral notes and a touch of vanilla. The palate shows flavours of green apple and peach balanced by a crisp, refreshing acidity. FOOD PAIRINGS Great sipping and reception wine! Delicate summer salads such as baby spinach and strawberries; watermelon and cucumber with feta; fresh angel hair pasta with olive oil or crispy vegetable spring rolls.

    Wine description 2011 Rheingau Riesling Auslese Weingut Georg Breuer Region With its some 3000 Hectars, Rheingau is one of the smallest winegrowing regions in Germany. Southfacing steep slopes are protected from the cold northerly winds by the Taunus Mountains, giving ideal ripening conditions. Vintage The 2011 vintage was defined by very unstable weather, which however towards the end allowed the grapes to develop perfect ripeness. After a short and cold winter, the April brought early summer-like temperatures with very little rain. Only in July and August could the rainfall deficiency be recovered. In the last weeks of the ripening process we enjoyed a golden October. Warm summer temperatures provided for a long harvest, which allowed all vineyards to be picked at the most ideal time.
