Ice ...? Pleeeease.  I believe it might be a Pinot Gris. What you may have mistaken for ice is the freshly poured vino splashing up the sides after hitting the bottom of the glass in full stride.

Thank you Simato73.  I found that if I photograph the pours ... I receive more wine.  ;)

I think the unfounding of fears creates a better world.
