I've got a 3 gallon batch of Ice Wine going now
Icewine is a real treat! There are a couple made in MA, but the only type I've had has been gifted by a coworker who picks it up when he visits family in Canada at Christmas time. Something about harvesting the grapes in frozen December/January that makes the juice limited and concentrated, and the wine super sweet
Last year he gave me a 200ML bottle of Cabernet Franc from Henry of Pelham Family Estates (I suspect it may have cost $40!!). The other day he handed me another Cabernet Franc from Pillitteri Estates. Both wineries are in Ontario.
This will be slowly quaffed around a fire pit one cold evening very soon.
