Herein awaits a dry sparkling cider made in the ancestral method from the juice of both foraged and organically cultivated cider apples. Vermont’s Walden Heights Nursery & Orchard, whence the cultivated fruit was grown, is a magical place where orchardist Todd Parlo shepherds a rich diversity of alpine fruit and nursery stock on a village hillside terraced by hand. The apple trees are sculpturally pruned and allowed to grow to their fullest potential amidst a polyculture of companion plantings. Derived from the Latin emanare, meaning “to flow from” or “to pour forth, or out of, Emanation is a cosmological theory that all material and immaterial existence flows from a Unified Whole or Source Energy. Our rendition of Emanation is delightfully fresh, crisp, and tart, emanating a sessionable innocence.

750mL 2021 vintage bottle drunk 12/17/22. Clear, brassy-blonde-gold. Large, white head quickly recedes to ring. Lovely, bright, sweet, but not sugary, fleshy, well-extracted fruit. Bit of cinnamon/vanilla-like tannin and a nutty and tart backend. Clean, with some mineral and light brett. Soft, mineralesque and juicy apple, nicely attenuated with Brett and lots of pepper and vanilla. It's not a stunner, probably on account of the lack of barrel-aging, but is just a solid, clean, mildly Bretty, mineral-rich, complex cider. Understated, but flawless and flavorful.
2021 bottle 12/31/24.
It's become quite stunning, developing more flavor, yet more softness, roundness and still engaging but not over attenuated Brett.

Bottle at Shelton After Party. Pours a hazy yellow with small white head that lasts. The aroma is apple skin, pear, oak. Light body, apple, oak, nice tartness, very good.
