Wines of Italy – Ice, Ice Baby

I think a lot of wine: Pinot Noir is with me, when around noon, sandwiches, Beaujolais in my mind as the holidays approach, Merlot and Cabernet parties the time on my brain when I am in a happy time. Sometimes the wine is even in my dreams: bottles of White Zinfandel, I did not know a fan, I hunt in the dark alleys and deserted. But then, of course, there are times when I do not think the wine at all, is one of those moments when I think of Germany. In my thoughts, words"Canada" and "wine" are rarely together.

But my thoughts are wrong (in my opinion, mind you), not me. Canada and the wine are two things that really do not match. Up and Coming, Canada is a country obsessed with climbing in the wine sector. Gaze drinkers, Canadian bacon, I think that inviting.

Now, Germany is certainly not a wine region, Napa Valley or known in Italy – Canadian grapes can easily mix with the public without difficultyPaparazzi – but its subtlety is mainly due to the fact that Canadian wineries are some of the latest in the world are just the beginning.

That's not to say that the idea of wine is a new concept for Canadians – Wine is hardly a new concept that any country that once areas in France – just have not managed until recently the wine to flourish in Canada. This was located in the first place economic restrictions on wineries in possession of a vineyard is not easysalary and potential producers were forced to choose between making wine and making money. In 1990, but the government monopolies that control the production and sale of alcohol and changed the production of wine in Canada was a much more profitable.

Ontario and British Columbia, shot from the gate, the leading country in wine production, an advantage that still hold today. Ontario accounted for 75 percent of wine sales, wine is grown in a unique environment, with a narrowProximity to large lakes, in the vineyards of Ontario to review the effect a little 'heat, enough to stop for Arctic winds and wine available.

British Columbia produces most of the wine remaining. One of the vineyards north of the world that the climate in British Columbia, ironically, is not just as one might suppose the Arctic. Valleys of the region are hiding behind the mountains, so that the hot, sunny and dry, most of them.

TheVineyards in Canada generally contain white grapes. Riesling, Chardonnay and Pinot Gris are often planted. Red wines, however, shows some potential growers and were able to success with Cabernet, Gamay, Merlot and Pinot Noir can be found. Besides this, go to Merlot and Riesling told to give him a break one, the true wine to ice wine in Canada.

Ice wine is a type of dessert wine made from grapes frozen while still on the vine. The sugars in theseThe grapes are frozen, but water in them. The result is a wine that is very sweet. But because the freezing happens before fermentation takes place, the wine is its acidity. The result is a wine that is known for its sweet and bitter, a rare combination for each beer.

While the ice wine is made from many different places – in Germany, the United States, Austria, France and Australia a few – the best wines of the ice, and the most expensive coming from Canada. ThisThe honor is probably two: fold consists mainly of the wine regions of Canada with a unique climate for most other places in the world, and secondly, the Canada takes very seriously its Icewine. By law, the grapes used for ice wine from Canada, must weigh less than 35 degrees Brix, Brix as a unit measures the ratio of sucrose to water. The grapes must be harvested when the temperature does not exceed to 17 degrees Celsius. Finally, the grapes freeze naturally.

Canadian ice winesare usually white with Vidal, Riesling, and – despite the fact that the wines of the ice from Canada in general – Cabernet Franc. Regarding the properties of ice wines are known very refreshing with a medium full-bodied flavor. The changes are dictated by the type of grape, but is often described as tasting of peach, apricot, pear, apple and honey and caramel. Canadian ice wines are usually an alcohol content of 8 to 13 percent.

In recent decades, while others have seenSlow Wine – wine, sparkling wine, including wine in a box – fill the glasses of drinks, but ice wines have made their mark in the world of wine. Since Canada is a leading player in the field of wine, ice wines grow in popularity, and soon everyone will know that this type of wine, much more than just a cube of frozen water in a glass of champagne
