Reviews and Ratings

Dianne Fisher - Sommelier, ISG rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

The colour of this sparkling Rosé was darker than anticipated. It reminds me of framboise which opened the door to stunning strawberry aroma on the nose. A cuveé of Chardonnay (55%), Pinot Noir (35%) Cabernet Franc (10%) with a dosage of Cabernet Franc ICEWINE. It has 16g of residual sugar so you can expect a touch of sweet however this rosé comes off as dry. The perfect marriage of traditional method sparkling with the best of what Niagara has to offer.

Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

This is an amazing off-dry sparkler sweetened with a dosage of Ontario icewine. Aromas of field berry, lemon zest, and some fresh bready, yeasty notes. This wine has a beautiful pale pink colour and a fine, fizzy mousse. Off-dry on the palate with bright, vibrant acidity, lots of berry and citrus notes and a crisp finish. Very refreshing and enjoyable, perfect for celebratory toasts, or to accompany a variety of brunch foods.
Melanie Lloyd - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

This bubbly has ice wine characteristics with its aromas of sweet marmalade and dried apricot. There is also peach and red berries. On the palate, there are flavours of marmalade and citrus, a touch of residual sugar and a nice level of acidity.

Philippe Perreault - Sommelier rated this wine as 87/100 with the following review:

It's made of 59% Pinot Noir, 29% Chardonnay, 8% Gamay completed by 4% Pinot Meunier.
The dosage is made of Vidal Icewine.

Clear salmon color with notes of melon. raspberry, cranberry and cherry.
It's crisp and very long on the palate.

Pair it with seafood.
Serve it at 8-10 degrees.
Enjoyable now
Peller Estates Ice Cuvée is a 55% Chardonnay, 35% Pinot Noir and 10 % Cabernet Franc sparkling rosé blend from the Niagara Peninsula wine region made in the traditional method and with an Cabernet Icewine dosage hence the name Ice Cuvée. Bubbles are persistent and deliver lush, ripe sweet red berry fruit lingering on the palate. - Community Wine Reviews
