A subtle Martini with the honeyed flavours of icewine melding with botanicals in the gin and balanced by the acidity of the white wine.

Nicholas Wilson
Tried this one a couple of times. You really need a bright, fresh, new world Savvy B (I went for an Awatere Valley from New Zealand) to stand up to the ice wine. Lovely tension between the two wines while the gin plays referee.

Its a complex cocktail, can taste the wine, hint of the gin. One to make again.

Sometimes after a holiday dinner, I'll have a little icewine left. Then I make one of these!
