Default BC Wines-Canada

Here are the names of the desert and ice wines I bought...tell me how I did
cause I have not tried and in fact...have never had any icewines.

Paradise Ranch 2000 Icewine-Merlot
Quails Gate 2000 Riesling Ice Wine
Saint Vincent Domaine Combret 2000 Chardonnay Icewine
Ortega (Fraser Valley) Botrys Affected 1997
Mission Hill Late Harvest Riesling

One bottle each of these is all I got to try. Again...no experience with
them but the retailer recomended the ones I purchased.
