WHITE PROPRIETARY
NW-2544. 42 ICE WINE MI half bottle (H) From vidal grapes intended for a winery that didn’t get off the ground. Bought by Fenn Valley and frozen. Won a trophy at the MI Wine Competition last year. We were served a fantastic sample last fall, but I never saw it on our supplier’s price list, so I thought is wasn’t available.

one is priced very fairly for ice wine. Well, turns out they made 5000 gallons, and it IS in distribution. Just luscious, succulent./ Smashing, intense, fresh, beautiful. A has-it-all wine. 97/100.
