It's an absolutely divine drink, but gee, this sweet wine from Beautiful Isle requires so much work in the winery! Cynthea and David plunge this wine with dry ice (which basically means sticking big dry ice blocks into the fermenting wine by hand). After a few days, they then take the must (that's the juice mix) and then freeze it to further concentrate the flavours. You end up with a pretty evocative drink and a wildly aromatic ride.

Unless you’ve been living under a hefty rock for the past ten years, you can’t have escaped the hype and excitement surrounding the Tasmanian wine scene. Once seen as something of a backwater, Tasmania has risen through the ranks to be - correctly - identified as one of the food and wine capitals of the world in the 21st century, and it’s all thanks to amazing, diligent, hard-working wineries like Beautiful Isle. With their vibrant, eye-catching labels (based on the traditional Tazzie ‘Apple Isle’ posters of yesteryear) and an incredible array of flavours and aromas, Beautiful Isle has garnered something of a cult following. It isn’t hard to understand why. This winery is completely dedicated to showing the world just why Tasmania’s reputation is rocketing in the way it is. Beautiful Isle wines are accessible, uncomplicated and fun to drink… yet they pack in the kinds of flavours and characteristics that other wineries around the world would give their left arm for.
