Verona, April 2009 - On the occasion of the 43rd edition of Vinitaly, the Special Gran Vinitaly Award<\/strong> was awarded to Inniskillin<\/strong>the prestigious Canadian manufacturer of Icewine<\/a> which is exclusively distributed in Italy by Banfi.<\/p>\n

Inniskillin wins special grand vinitaly award<\/h2>\n

The prize is awarded to the winery that has achieved the highest score in at least two different categories at the Vinitaly International Wine Competition. Awarded to Inniskillin is a gold medal for the Sparkling Vidal Icewine<\/strong> - Limited Edition 2006<\/strong> (category other sweet sparkling wines) and for the Vidal Icewine 2007<\/strong> (category still wines designated with a geographical indication - Natural sweet wines).<\/p>\n

The award-winning winery was founded in 1975 by Donald Ziraldo, son of Italian emigrants, and Karl J. Kaiser, of Austrian origin. Today, it distinguishes itself in one of the most extreme, extraordinary and incredible types of wine in the wine world, icewine. A sweet wine, but not necessarily a dessert wine, whose production, in order to achieve maximum sugar concentration and extreme sweetness calibrated by excellent acidity, requires a specific meteorological characteristic, namely the presence of temperatures that remain eight to ten degrees below zero for a long time.<\/p>\n

The purity, the freshness of the aromas, the varietal characteristics of the grapes used, the fragrances conferred by this very special concentration represented by the 'icing' of the grapes, are enhanced by vinification and ageing carried out exclusively in steel.<\/p>\n

Banfi distributes three icewines from the extensive Inniskillin range exclusively for Italy: Cabernet Franc, the award-winning Vidal and Riesling.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
