Fuera de Canadá la vidal, una variedad híbrida, tiene poco reconocimiento, pero en este país da lugar a grandes vinos como este icewine tan seductor y bien perfilado. De color ámbar y nariz golosa y atractiva, presenta notas de fruta con hueso en almíbar, manzana muy madura, miel ligera, toques tropicales, toffees, poso de café, uvas pasas, corteza de naranja confitada.... En boca tiene buen ataque, pasa cremoso, tiene una acidez notable, cierto peso de fruta y gran persistencia. Notable elegancia.

The fruit was a bit more muted and subdued than earlier tastings with it giving way to a layer of smoke and wood. Aromas of apple blossoms, apricot with hint of cinnamon-raison bread. On the palate, this beautifully rich dessert wine follows through nicely with mix of apricot, mango and a strong honeyed fig component. The overall finish has good length with tantalizing flashes of exotic fruit and spice.

Not overly sweet, nor overly thick and syrupy. Nice weight balance. Not as complex as some I've had. Still a very nice bottle. Seemed ready to be consumed, IMO. Peach flavors. Dark caramel color.

Prominent apricots. More acidity is needed. Still very enjoyable p

Lacked depth, complexity and interesting flavours.
