Virginia Sparkling Apple Wine
Made exclusively from heritage cider apples, and cellared for at least one year, this singular bubbly is truly the non plus ultra of artisan ciders.
Deep golden color, with tiny champagne bubbles, this bittersharp méthode champenoise sparkling wine possesses all of the balance of a cava or champagne, yet with a wonderful apple scent. Tasting notes of apple, pear, quince and lemon predominate, with a slight hint of baker’s yeast in the background. It pairs well with soft cheese, white sauce pasta, shellfish, and lamb.
10.5% ABV Available in .75liter.
