I am a little biased and I cannot say for certain if this song gives off wintry vibes on its own without any in-game context. When I hear this song, I immediately think of soft hills of snow and sledding, while a kick-ass bass player just kills it at the top of some random hillock with the drummer while the flutist casually careens down between the hills on a traditional wooden sled.
So yeah, that flute is just everything about this song. And just when you think that this song couldn't get any better, 0:58 happens and you're just floored by all the parts of this song coming together and nailing it. Yes, digitally programmed instruments are allowed to nail songs because this song is just that awesome; a "banger" as the hep kids like to say these days.
The only way it could be more snow/cold/icy, is if there had been a jingly bell somewhere in the beginning or end, but then why would you want to try to mess with perfection?
