Inniskillin, Gold Vidal Icewine, Niagara Peninsula

A Mix of Champagne; 12/5/2015-12/6/2015 (Ray and Teresa's) : My first Inniskillin. Had a small pour at a tasting. Golden raisins, concord grape, sweet stone fruit. The nose has great complexity of fruit. The taste is mostly cloying golden raisin, lemon, a little acidity but it could use more.

Sweet. 12 Celsius serving, would rather have cooler, not warmer. Very fruity. Great by itself, would consider something sour to eat alongside. Worth it.
