Vidal Selected Late Harvest Wine Details
Price: $20.00 per bottle

Description: Harvested at the same time as the 2008 ice-wine picked at 28% sugar levels and bottled at 9% residual sugar. This is a delightful little brother of the 2008 icewine. Big rich and bold but full of finesse, ice wine lovers will enjoy this wine with desert and will revile in it’s splendor. This 2008 vintage wine was the first wine produced at Founders Wine Cellar.

Varietal Definition
Vidal Blanc:
A white French hybrid once widely planted in the south of France, it is more suitable for growing in warm and humid climates like the South. These vines are prolific, producing large golden berries, suitable for eating out of hand as table grapes. When vinified, Villard Blanc makes a fruity, mildly intense white wine (somewhat Sauvignon Blanc like) of fairly neutral and simple flavors. Primarily used for blending.
