I was given a bottle of Ice Wine from a Canadian relative visiting me this week, never knew of the stuff, Quite interesting and I am liking it alot. Expensive too but he makes his own.
Ice wine is like ice beer. It's a little stronger because they chill it until it has some ice crystals, then filter those out. The remaining wine has more alcohol.
I always thought the grape was picked of the vine when it was frozen, this means picking it at unearthly hours, thats why ice wine costs so much.
