WA95 The 2019 Vidal Reserve Icewine comes in with 9.3% alcohol, 215 grams of residual sugar and 11 grams of total acidity. Of the three non-oaked ice wines this issue (including from Inniskillin), this might be the brightest and freshest, with a bit of tang and spice on the finish. The ones from Inniskillin have more weight and richness, but this seems sunnier and livelier. It leans a little more to grapefruit than apricot, although that’s a relative term for this style of wine. I liked this a lot. It’s a beauty. This comes in a 187-milliter bottle, to which the price applies.
Allan Jackson and Don Triggs established the Jackson-Triggs Niagara Estate Winery in 1993. Jackson-Triggs has been awarded “Best Canadian Winery” 26 times in global competitions.
The Vidal varietal is a French-American hybrid of Ugni Blanc and Siebel (Rayon d’Or). Naturally frozen grapes are pressed at -10ºC (14ºF) enhancing sweetness and aromatic flavors, while preserving the balancing acidity. This is a richly textured wine with bold fruit flavors, balanced with a fine acidity for a silky finish. These wines can last up to 4 weeks after opening due to the naturally high levels of acidity. While other dessert wines can be absolutely wonderful and have a great level of intensity and sweetness, Ice wines have higher natural acidity, making them less cloying on the palate, and better food matches.
