Corked bottle; L080206
Bright and clean amber color. Nice penetrating aroma, sour cider, hint of alcohol. Thick body, sweet, not syrupy; there is a note behind the cider, probably the oak; it's a bit too boozy though. A few things going on there, but not coming together.
Very good.

375mL bottle, pours a clear caramel colour. Aroma brings out caramelized brown sugar, toffee, and caramel. Flavour is very sweet, with caramelized brow sugar, caramel, toffee, and light oak. Incredibly complex, with a wonderful blend of caramelized apples and brown sugar. Phenomenal.

Bright pinkish-amber colour. I like the depth of the sugary malts,with a nice oaky note. It's fruity, it's has a nice vinous character. For me, it's fruity, has a spicy alcohol finish with a lot of oak. Delicious.

Bottle sample courtesy of kraddel, thanks! Dark ruby purple color. Aroma of floral tannic berries. Taste is delicate, fruity, lingering fruit finish. Delicious.

375 ml. bottle shared by Kraddel during the (Ice) Cider/Perry tasting @ Barely Legal Tasting Room. 2012 Vintage. Bottle nr. 6789. Thank you! Sampled. Gorgeous label. Tasted side-by-side with the non-BA version aka “Verger St-Denis Pomme de Glace”. Vintages were different. 2010 vs. 2012. Ice Cider doesn’t change that much with aging I have been told. Pours way, way darker than non-BA version, dark caramel amber. Light sherry in the nose, warming syrup de Liège, lots of sugar, oak; Taste is sweet, warming, apple syrup, syrup de Liège, brown sugar, sherry. Thick, oily, nicely warming. Amazing on its own, I preferred the non-BA version which I felt had more nuances & this was more of a straight-forward flavour.
