Just to add on some suggestions for icewine. Try the Germans Eiswein. I personally think they are the best when it comes to icewines. The layers and dimension of flavours that you get from an Eiswine is incredible. Though it does get a bit too overwhelming after the 1st glass, even with the hallmark Riesling acidity that comes through at the finish. Brilliant as a digestif but not something I could enjoy all night long.

QUOTE(WintersuN @ May 31 2012, 01:23 PM) The wine only age in the barrel. Once bottle i think no more change in quality. Not true. The aging in barrel but not in bottle thing applies mostly to whisky and other spirits. Wine definitely matures after bottling. Not to say that old is gold. Some wines improve with age most turn flat with age.So 1970 wine will be the same this year compare 5 yrs later in quality. Not really sure how it works. I think is see the harvest and production quality of the year. So maybe 1970 wine maybe not so good harvest price will ower comparre 1980 if the grape quality good?
