Niagara Icewine Festival

January 10 is the start of the Niagara Icewine Festival that begins with the 25th Niagara Icewine Gala.

Niagara icewines rival other sweet dessert wines including: late harvest wines, ice ciders, Port, Hungary’s Tokaji,  France’s Sauternes, and Italy’s Vin Santo.

If you haven’t tasted an icewine from Niagara, Niagara is a great place to visit and discover icewines.
