  • Ice wine

    As with other wines with special attributes, ice wine may only be produced once its residual-sugar level has been verified by a inspector from the State Agricultural & Food Inspectorate SZPI. They are made by pressing grapes frozen on the vine at a temperature of at least -7 °C and with a must-weight level of at least 27 °NM . The grapes must not thaw during the pressing process which is why a part of the water remains as ice crystals within the grapes. Ice wines tend to be opulent, rich, very sweet and are comparatively rare and thus very expensive.

    CHARDONNAY – ICE WINE YR. 2005

    CHARDONNAY
    ICE WINE YR. 2005

    Imagine an early winter morning long before the break of dawn, the numb fingers of grape pickers harvesting grapes at a temperature of 100 C that we’ve been awaiting for almost two months. Before the sun comes out, the entire harvest must be pressed, where only concentrated juice is extracted as the water remains in the grapes frozen. Ice wine excels for its lovely, fresh, velvet, fruity bouquet reminiscent of the fragrance of lemons. The wine has high residual sweetness. (0,2L)
