Unlike any other grape harvest, the much-anticipated ice wine harvest usually takes place in the dark of the night, when at last temperatures fall to targeted levels and mature grapes freeze on vines.

和其他葡萄采摘不一样的是，花更多预算的冰酒葡萄采摘通常是在深夜中，最后温度达到目标水平而葡萄又成熟的时候进行。

Co-existing with frozen water crystals inside grape skins, are the ripe sugars, acids and concentrated flavors characteristic of ice wines.

葡萄的表皮里是冰晶状的水分，与之共存的是冰酒特有的成熟的糖分和酸味与及浓缩了的芳香。

However, there are some problems in ice grape wine production as follows: unqualified raw materials, raw materials by artificial freezing, addition of sugar, and dilution by grape fruitade etc.

目前冰酒生产仍然存在原料不符合规范要求、采用人工冷冻处理原料、补加糖分和用浓缩葡萄汁稀释等弊端。
