We were met by one of the owners, Kathy, a former food scientist. She started us off with sample ice wine slushies, and we were hooked. We then opted for the... More

We had to leave quickly because our son was with us and was sick. We did get 2 bottles of the delicious Vidal and are looking forward to returning in June to get... More

James, the winemaker, and Deb made us feel at home. The delicious tasting was a bonus. Ice wine slushies, wasabi crackers, chili dark chocolate, laughs and more ice wine! Even if you don't care for sweet ice wine the drive there is so beautiful,definitely worth it.

We dropped in for a tasting between Christmas and New Years. We were warmly greeted by the owners and had an ice slushy in hand within a few moments of arrival. We then had the opportunity to ask questions about the ice wine process before moving on to the tasting. Our three ice wines were paired with three foods as... More

The Ice House is a must to visit. The ice wine is amazing! Make sure you ask for an ice wine slushy. Debby was very knowledgable, helpful, and made our wine experience unforgettable! We will definitely be coming back.

Visited the Ice House before Christmas to buy Ice Wine to make Slushies for my Family and friends during the Holidays. Ending up going with the Package, so I could make Ice Wine Kir Royales on New Years Eve with their Cabernet as well. Prices are comparible with other Wineries that make Ice Wine. But the "Ice House," Ice Wine... More
