Pacific Rim NV Framboise Raspberry
- $14
This is made by fermenting raspberries to about .5% alcohol, then adding grape spirits to produce a hybrid between liqueur and wine. Intensely fragrant, with 16.5% alcohol and 16% residual sugar. The raspberry flavors are concentrated and pure, with amazing persistence. Use this in cocktails, or mix it with bubbly.

La Face Cachée de la Pomme NV Neige Apple Ice Wine (Quebec)
- $35
A beautiful Quebec classic ice cider, with vibrant notes of fresh apple slices drizzled with honey and clove. Round and full in the mouth without being overly heavy and cloying, the tangerine citrus lifts up the sweeter ripe baked apple and superripe stone fruit flavors. Long and immensely satisfying on the finish; a great after dinner sipper for company.

Still River NV Apfel Eis Apple Ice Wine
- $25
A lovely drink from a winery in Massachusetts where all they produce is apple ice wine. One sip and you’re instantly transported to standing in an orchard on a brisk fall afternoon, with forward aromas and flavors of baked apples with soft spice, caramel and tangerine citrus. Full in the mouth with moderate acidity and a crisp, clean finish.

Domaine Pinnacle NV Ice Apple Wine
- $33
With over 80 apples used to produce each bottle, there’s no question as to what the dominating fruit character is here. Aromas of apple skins, clove and ginger on the nose transition to flavors of candied apple, white grape and honeyed apricot in the sticky, viscous mouth. Long and lingering on the finish; a dessert wine sure to please those with a sweet tooth.

Magnotta 2001 Iced Apple (Niagara Peninsula)
- $20
A heady baked apple and spice nose on this unusual dessert wine, but the flavors of cinnamon, apple and honey are a bit heavy. It’s tasty, but slightly clumsy in its intense sweetness. A lighter touch with these appetizing flavors would have improved the wine’s accessibility.

Alba NV Forbidden Icewine Apple
- $15
Fans of Jolly Rancher apple flavors will enjoy this apple ice wine, but it lacks depth and true apple flavors. The nose is candied and sweet, and on the palate, it has a lack of dimension beyond syrupy sweetness.
