Last year i brought back 3 small bottles of icewine from Canadian wine makers Magnotta. To celebrate Marianne’s graduation I created a special dessert to match this wine.
I made fresh tortellini with cheese and walnuts with spinach, mushrooms and ricotta sauce.
Dessert was a puree of strawberries, red berries and a frozen boysenberry (aka Blackberry) sorbet. Fresh mint and caramel cookies made the match with the freshness and sultry flavors of the icewine.
