Icewine Vidal Tasting Review



Name: Icewine Vidal

Variety: Vidal

Region: Niagra-On-The-Lake

Country: Canada

Year: 2020

Price: $15.00 from Aldi


Online Review:

November 2023

User: AJ Cruzer

The taste was mostly tart pears, peaches, honey, apricots, and some subtle persimmon notes (but none of the tannins of course). It reminded me a little bit of Moscato with how heavily the pear shined through, but the syrupy texture was very nice. I was surprised how much acidity was present considering this has 198 grams per liter of sugar according to the label.

  • Smell: lychee, very faint, honeysuckle

  • Taste: super sweet, honey, syrup, honeysuckle


My Review: 8.5/10

  • Smooth feeling in my mouth when swished

  • I had this wine with a soft pretzel and the saltiness balanced out the sweetness of the wine which paired well together

  • The legs had a lot of bubbles stuck in them
