tried a few Eiswein but none beats the icewines I got from Canada.
Eiswein are generally more expensive than the Canadian.

anyone tried icewine sparking? few winery have them. buy from the source they usually cost CND$60++.
if u get the chance go on the ice wine festival on Nigara-on-the-lake, can experience ice wine tasting (the right way).

Inniskillin is a little over rated today. In competition the winner do go to other little known winery.
Niagara Falls being my backyard.
I do get to try a great number of ice wines from the region.
I had tried a few from US, Minnesota, Michigan and I think NY they are often expensive and not good.

ice wine != Port

Port are forified wine, brandy are often added.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_wine

ice wine no brandy are added, grape are hang out on the vine until Jan then harvest.
yield are often low, grapes do become over ripe, birds do eat them, they do dry out too.
as the temp go lower the sugar content get concentrated.
