Liberty Ciderworks - Widdershins Apple Dessert Wine (375 ML)
APÉRITIF CIDER
Liberty's version of French Pommeau, this wondrous apéritif begins with Manchurian crabapple juice blended with apple brandy (from 2-Loons Distillery) to arrest fermentation and retain sweetness. Barrel-aging softens and harmonizes notes of cinnamon, black cherry, and vanilla. A 2019 Cidercraft™ Judges' Choice – Santé!
Enjoy this uniquely wonderful libation as an apéritif, or pair with soft artisan cheeses or creamy desserts.
About Pommeau: French-style apple ‘mistelle,’ a blend of fresh juice (called ‘must’) and brandy. Historically, in western France, fresh apple juice was blended with cider brandy to preserve the flavors throughout the year. This operation, known as ‘mutage,’ was done quietly on the family farm and, for centuries, the method was a closely guarded secret. The result became the local apéritif, called Pommeau - from ‘pomme,’ meaning apple. A fine Pommeau blends strength, sweetness and delicacy.
