What is ice cuvee sparkling wine?
Ice Cuvee is a sparkling Canadian wine, made by the Peller Estates, it is a dry sparkling wine, but with hints of honey, perfumed with apricots, yeast and ripe apples, with flavours of tropical fruit and sweet grapefruit.
Food Matching: Enjoy before a meal with salty appetizers, seafood or creamy risotto or with fresh fruit and creamy cheeses.
Vinification: Using the ‘methode classique’, individual batches of the champagne grapes chardonnay and pinot noir are fermented in tank. A cuvee is made using a selection of these wines which are then bottled with yeast and sugar. After ageing on the lees for approximately 30 months, the bottles are riddled, degorged and a dosage of 110ml of Icewine is added
