2012 Ice Princess
Regular price $36.00
This Ice Princess Sweet Wine is made from Sauvignon Blanc grown in an ideal site in the Stonehenge Vineyard along the Washington side of the Columbia Gorge. The fruit is harvested at the point the flavors are pitch perfect, and just as importantly, the acids are right for a balanced, but not overly sweet dessert wine. The fruit is taken straight from the vineyard to cold storage where it is frozen for five weeks, after which it is immediately pressed very slowly over the course of several days, producing a uniquely delicate, aromatic and lengthy dessert wine. Sweetness was kept in check for this wine to highlight the distinctive varietal characteristics. Bright acidity provides balance making this both a wine that is very friendly for food pairing in the near- term, as well as a wine that is worthy of aging.
