Thats the reason that a brief visit of this area during the icewine festival gives you a very good glimpse of the flourishing wine industry in Canada. Icewine Ontario is made in a unique way to offer you the taste that you always cherished. The wine makers wait throughout the fall and collect the grapes when they are frozen in the vineyards by the end of the fall. This way not only we get the most ripened grapes, we also get it when its sugar content is highest.

The freezing temperature in the Niagara Ontario region freezes all the juice and water content of grapes and all that is left inside is ice and sugar. A very small quantity of juice is extracted from these frozen grapes and it contains certain flavor, sugar and some acid. The slightly higher acidic content helps it taste better. It also helps you clear your mouth of the sticky or sea food. Hybrid Vidal is the variety of grape that is grown in Niagara wine region. But wines wines such as the whites Riesling and Gewrztraminer use another variety of grape and that is vinefera.
