The wines that result, uniquely unctuous but with a piercing streak of lip-smacking freshness, are delicious on their own, but acquire new dimensions alongside food. Producing Icewine is an extraordinarily laborious process, involving the thawing and freezing of grapes on numerous occasions, picking them at the perfect moment and, in the winery, a long, slow pressing during which the winery workers have been known to stage a few games of hockey to pass the time. But they went further, planting their Niagara Peninsula vineyards closer to Lake Ontario in an effort to make their Icewine fresher and more food-friendly. The Pellers are Icewine pioneers, being among the first families to explore the possibilities of this unique Canadian style of wine. After numerous setbacks and involvements in the brewing and newspaper industries, and with the financial help of his son Joe, by now a doctor, Peller Family Estates was finally born in 1969. When Hungarian-born Andrew Peller arrived in Canada in 1927, his dream was to persuade his new country to learn to love and appreciate fine wine as much as his fellow Europeans. ![]()
