The 2000 Ice Wine was fashioned using cryogenic extraction. (This entails placing the grapes in a freezer to mimic the freezing of the grapes' water, as happens naturally in German eisweins). It offers an explosive nose of tangy mangoes and minerals. This well-balanced wine coats the palate with red berry, tropical fruit, cherry, and spice flavors. Extremely sweet, it is not cloying, as the requisite acidity for maintaining focus and freshness are present. Drink this wine over the course of the next 6-8 years.
