The Palindrome California Tannat 2015

Spiced raspberry cider with delightfully astringent orange peel. A bit thick, more on the sweet end, unexpected. This is a fall campfire wine. — 6 years ago

Snowdrift Cider Co.

Red Cider

First to rate this. 7.5% alc/vol. Label states “Made entirely from red-fleshed apples. 0ff-dry...Descendants of Kazakhstan’s wild apple forests...The pigment-rich apples yield a coral cider naturally rich in flavors of watermelon, strawberry and rhubarb”. Medium sized bubbles, foam ring persists long after pour. Coral pink in color with great clarity. Primarily apple aroma, simple profile but floral and perfumed. Crisp in mouth, very fresh tasting with a hint of unripe or green fruit character, good malic presence, moderate pulp astringency on finish. Some watermelon and strawberry character in flavor but I’m a poor identifier of rhubarb. A treat, worth seeking out. Produced in East Wenatchee WA, USA. Nanocidery makes seven ciders, 200 cases in its first year, up to 1800 cases after two years — 5 years ago

Botani Malaga Dry Muscat 2013

Cantaloupe, apple cider, sun flowers. A few years has given it a touch of baked fruit and pistachio. Medium body. Is it odd to have green leaves from plants that are not grape vines on the label? A simple, pretty wine. — 6 years ago

Goose Island Beer Co.

Lolita Belgian Style Wild Ale 2015

Key Lime Pie and Lolita? Hard slap of apple cider riding high on waves of apricot and cinnamon stick that is cheating with apple in Pickleville. Asian spices shimmer alongside. Real tart briny lime plays nice with Old Key Lime House-made pie. Bing cherry bringing the cringe from the fringes to the face cave! Sugar-olive dichotomies. The push and pull cancellations have me imagining pickled persimmon existences, dried, spiced Asian plum, banana pepper, potpourri woods, candied ginger, and bite after bite the palatal assault assuaged by lime and sugar and graham cracker. Bittersweet tang for the twang thang. — 6 years ago

Brand

Pet Nat 2017

The Brand Brothers make the purest, freshest Pet Nats I’ve tasted anywhere. These are no gimmick wines - transparent and void of that common cider note (not a fan). Quality in restraint.

After I raved about their Pet Nat Rose’ a few weeks ago, I’m equally enthusiastic for their 50/50 Silvaner, Pinot Blanc hazy white. It has crazy low ABV (10%) and is dry as hell (3g RS) with aromas of crushed sea shells, salty air, and tangerine. Flavors of yeasty apple core and celery bitters.

Thanks @Jason Brater. I put a lot of thought into trying to capture why I do or don’t like a wine. It means a lot when people read those thoughts!
