Nathan,
              Nice to see you enjoy a little of my local product. Yes  
it is great and you should know that German and Austrian Governments  
have tried in
the past to have it banned from Europe. I personally have been  
photographing the harvest of ice wine for years and my photos are all  
sold/published
in Europe. You would even find a Leica M6 photo  one metre by 2  
metres hanging in the wine museum in London under Waterloo bridge. If  
you pick
up wine books in London on wines of the world, under Canada, you  
would most likely find a photo of mine on ice wine and shot on a Leica.
Next time try some Inniskillin as it started the trend.  Cheers!
