L8 Harvest Vinegar is made from icewine. Icewine is made by harvesting grapes in winter when they are naturally frozen on the vine. The grapes are frozen solid when they picked and when they are pressed. The juice is rich in flavour, natural sugars and grape acids. The icewine is finished, and then converted into vinegar. This step takes months in temperature controlled tanks - important for keeping the true taste of icewine all the way through to the bottled vinegar. L8 Harvest Vinegar is bottle aged.
