donald ziraldo is a canadian winemaker, pioneer and founder in 1975 of inniskillin, ontario's first winery since prohibition in the 1930s. nine years later, he joined forces with karl kaiser, an austrian-born canadian winemaker, and produced the first ice wines. he left inniskillin in 2006 to create his own estate. donald ziraldo planted his riesling vines in 2007 and adopted the principles of organic farming from the start. he then continued with vidal vines, a white hybrid grape variety, a cross between trebbiano (or ugni blanc) and rayon d'or, offering both a high sugar content in cold climates and a good level of acidity. harvesting takes place between early december and march. the niagara peninsula offers unique climatic conditions for the ripening of the grapes: the very cold winters naturally freeze the water contained in the berries and allow to obtain a perfect balance between acidity, sugar and aromatic richness. ziraldo vidal icewine 2017 vidal icewine is a uniquely canadian version, in that vidal has become the main icewine grape variety in canada. this white grape is very winter hardy and produces high sugar levels in cold climates with beautiful acidity and spectacular aromas when frost naturally settles on the vine. when tasted, it is very fruity, with notes of fresh grapes, apple and pineapple.
