WINE DESCRIPTION

Duck Walk Vineyards Vidal Blanc Ice is a luscious dessert wine produced by Duck Walk Vineyards, a winery located in the North Fork of Long Island, New York. The wine is made from Vidal Blanc grapes, a variety with tough skins that resist cracking through successive frosts, thaws and freezing lending itself perfectly to the production of ice wine. Frozen grapes are hand-picked, pressed and fermented in stainless steel at low temperatures. The wine is aged for a short period in stainless steel, then in the bottle. This wine is best served well chilled and is perfect for pairing with fruit-based desserts.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Duck Walk Vineyards Vidal Blanc Ice Wine is a luxurious and decadent dessert wine with a thick, viscous consistency and a deep golden color hinting at its intense concentration.On the nose, it has pronounced aromas of apricot, honey and tropical fruit. On the palate, it is full-bodied with a syrupy texture and flavors of ripe mango, peach and honey. The finish is rich and decadent, but remains well balanced by brisk acidity that prevents the wine from being cloying or sickly.
