Winery: Viento / Underwood Mountain Vineyards 55% Riesling/45% Gewurztraminer Ice Wine

A field blend ice wine—don’t see that very often—it’s full-bodied, almost lush, and packed with mixed slightly candied fruits—tropical, stone fruits and citrus. Concentrated and poised, it balances on fresh acidity. Just a hint of plastic in the back of the finish.
