Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
One of the rarest varieties for ice wine, Pinot Noir is a delicate thin-skinned grape that requires tender care to protect the very small yields. Two vines are required to yield one small bottle of Whistler Pinot Noir icewine. In the bottle incredibly intense strawberry and raspberry overlay creamy flan with dried lemon peel. Serve with aged cheese, cheesecake and fine pastries.
