ICEWINE. COMING SOON
The Tiraspol Winery & Distillery “KVINT” is going to bottle long-expected “Icewine” next week!
Dessert wine “Icewine” is made from the selected grapes of the variety Riesling, which were hand-picked at dawn in the first autumn frost. Frost should be not less than -8°C. Unlike water, sugar and other substances in the berries do not freeze; this allows squeezing concentrated juice from the frozen grapes. It results in getting small amount of rich, very fragrant and sweet wine.
The production process is hard and risky, and yield of ready product is extremely low, which is reflected in the price of “Icewine”.
“Icewine” will be available in bottles of smaller volume – 375 ml. Up to 16 kg of grapes can be used in preparation of 1 bottle of such wine.
