Recently, I have come across a truly special tale about wine – a tale shaped by weather, tradition, and a lot of skill: Germany’s ice wine. A rare treat, this special wine is known for its bold flavours and the daring way in which it is made. Read the full online feature here 👇 https://www.discovergermany.com/the-frozen-elixir/

Ice wine, or Eiswein as it is known in German, is more than a dessert wine; it is a product of patience, risk, and a touch of luck. Its creation depends on the perfect confluence of weather and willpower, resulting in a golden, aromatic wine with remarkable sweetness balanced by vibrant acidity. The allure of ice wine lies not only in its flavour but in the drama and unpredictability of its production.
