| Harvest The grapes for the Jackson-Triggs 2004 Proprietors’ Reserve Vidal Icewine were harvested December 27th and January 15th at 39.5º Brix from select vineyards in the Niagara Peninsula. Winemaking The naturally frozen grapes for our Vidal Icewine were pressed at an average of -10°C thus enhancing the varietal’s sweetness and concentrated aromatic flavours. This was followed by fermentation in stainless steel to preserve the wine's intensity. Winemaker's Notes Our 2004 Proprietors’ Reserve Vidal Icewine displays rich tropical aromas of papaya, mango and apricot. Bold fruit flavours balanced with fine acidity caress the palate and conclude with an exquisite silky finish. - Tom Seaver, Winemaker Food Pairings Serve slightly chilled on its own, with fresh fruit, foie gras, rich paté or a selection of fine cheeses. Awards And Accolades “Vidal at its zenith. Utterly convincing flavours and aromas of tropical fruit, apricots and oranges. Beautifully acidic with a long, silky honeyed finish.” – Mark Criden, Buffalo Spree Product Information
