Rated as the “Best Ice Wine made in North America” by The Best Of the East Magazine in 2000, this is made in German ice wine style from Riesling grapes. It is lusciously sweet, but it has good underlying acidity to balance it. It can be aged well for 15-20 years. It is a multi-year winner of the Maryland Governor’s Cup.
