Peller Estate Cabernet Franc 2002 Niagara Icewine 37.5cl

Ice wine from Peller Estate in the Canadian VQA of Niagara Peninsula, made exclusively from Cabernet Franc grapes, yielding a rare red sweet wine.

Ice wine is a particularly decadent style of sweet wine, in which the grapes are left of their vines for an extended period of time, well into the winter, and are only picked - by hand and in the middle of the night - after a suitable period of constant cold temperatures.  The water content within the grapes thus freezes and the grapes are carefully pressed shortly after picking to draw only the sweet sugary pulp.

Four bottles of non-vintage Champagne produced from grapes within Premier Cru vineyards, from one of the leading grower-winemakers, Pierre Mignon.
