Additional Info:

Vidal (VEE-dal) Possibly the best of the white French – American hybrid grape varieties, an Ugni blanc and Seibel 4986 hybrid variety. Excellent winemaking and viticulture properties, this thick skinned grape variety is very cold tolerant and is late ripening making it extremely suitable to Canadian climate, and one of the most popular varieties to use for icewine production. A range of wine styles can be produced with this grape dry to sweet table wines, dessert and icewines, occasionally displaying Riesling – like characteristics. Vidal tends to display aromas and flavours of peach, apricot, honey, and soft floral notes.

Winemaker’s Notes:

A stunning Late Harvest Vidal! Really classic to the varietal characteristics lots of stone fruit and honey in the profile. This wine has a nice balance between the sweetness and acidity so the residual 17g/L sugar doesn’t come off too sweet.
