    • In Germany, in 1794, it was discovered that if grapes were picked when the temperature was about -13 degrees (Celsius) and then squeezed, they would produce a very concentrated juice that is very flavoured but contains almost no water.
    After the fermentation process, you get what is called "ice wine".

    Apparently, and according to the LCBO expert, only Germany and Canada produce it.

    It is a sweet dessert wine that seems to please most.

    If you want a typical Canadian beverage, this is a good option and makes for a nice gift.
