OLD MISSION PENINSULA -- Wineries, like Chateau Chantal are able to harvest earlier than ever for its ice wine. It's not every year that wineries are able to harvest ice wine, only when the weather cooperates just right. The process of harvesting the frozen grapes results in a sweet, fruity dessert wine. This year, according to growers, the early freeze and continuous cold weather will help to bring in a large harvest.
