Kettle Valley Derailer 2001


Kettle Valley Derailer 2001

Since this was a 375 ml bottle, we expected this to be along the lines of an ice wine...but it's not.We suspect they call it the Derailer because it derails your expectations. It could also derail you, if you didn't pay attention to the fact that it's over 15 percent alcohol.

It's tasty, but quite dry--not what is typically thought of as a dessert wine at all.

And that's all we can tell you about it--there's nothing on the label to indicate what kinds of grapes go into it, and it's not mentioned on the winery's Web site, either.
