Description
Light, strong berry overtones. Fresh and fruity in nose, followed by a burst of
apples. Rich and succulent in a well-balanced frame.
Fruit
A blend of local apples and European elderberries are used.
Winemaking
Elderberries are added to fermenting cider then scooped out when the desired
color and flavor extraction have been obtained. We distill the elderberries to
produce a kind of grappa. The wine is aged in oak barrels for 6 months to a
year, then bottled with less than 1% residual reducing sugar.
Aging
This wine ages well in the bottle for 3-5 years but is quite drinkable soon
after bottling.
Food Pairings and Serving Suggestions
Perfect with pasta and duck. Serve at room temperature.
