Taster from my Mrs' half which originated in a bag in box at Cobbett's, Dorking. Aroma is sweet and fruity but nondescript. Opaque gols. No head. Sweet. Combines sweet apple with sweet pineapple. More peripheral lemon. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft carbonation. Long dry slightly astringent finish. OK.

Can from Appellation Wines. Appearance - cloudy yellow with thin white lacing. Nose - deep stewed apple going into pineapple, though the apple holds its own. Taste - luscious stewed apple and tinned pineapple. There's something citrussy which could be the lemon but it could also be the acidity in the apple and pineapple. Palate - close to medium bodied, tangy rich middle and finish. Overall - luscious stuff!
