WINE DESCRIPTION

The grapes used to make this wine are grown in the Okanagan Valley, a region known for its ideal vineyard conditions. The winemakers carefully select only the best grapes, which are left on the vine until they freeze, intensifying their flavors. The resulting wine is a luscious and sweet dessert wine with notes of honey, apricot, and peach. This wine is perfect for special occasions or as a luxurious treat.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Mission Hill Family Estate Vidal Reserve Icewine is an exquisite dessert wine made from Vidal grapes.On the nose, it offers bright aromas of honey, orange blossom, and fresh apricot. The palate is rich and unctuous, with flavors of honey, melon, and stone fruit. Balanced acidity and a hint of sweetness make this a wonderfully complex and inviting wine. The finish is long and lingering, with a touch of minerality. An opulent and indulgent treat, this wine is a sublime expression of the Okanagan Valley's unique terroir.
