A natural Ice Wine is produced only every few years, when vintners are able to harvest a small percentage of grapes at the first frost. Even under the best circumstances, an Ice Wine is harvested in extremely small quantities, if at all.
The 2002 Thanisch Riesling Ice Wine has a great body of strawberry jam with honey and caramel notes. It is rich gold in color, and like a fine brandy, this wine must be tasted to be appreciated. It is ready to drink today or can age for many years to come. |
