Clear 750ml capped bottle from Appalachian. Couple hours of chill time in the fridge. Pint glass that night. Clear, dull honey gold, tall soda head. Boozy, veggy floral, sweet apple, perceived acid nose. Astringent grassy, crab apple bitterness, veggy, apple sauce sweetness, waxy, lingering boozy oak. Warming acid. Soft fizz, thin, too oaky, lingering booziness. Okay, if sloppy.

750 mL bottle from Wine Warehouse, 6/9/23. Nearly-clear gold with a chill haze. Thin white head, average retention. Aroma of sweet apple, sweet pear, apple skins, a mineral note. Taste is dry apple, pear, vanilla, earth, pepper, and a tart apple along the sides of the palate. Crisp, well balanced. Delicate. Very nice.

50cl bottle pours a clear gold with some white head that settled to a ring. Nose is waxy, jolly rancher, apple candle, some green apple. Flavor is straight green apple jolly rancher, pickled grape, candle. Finishes low acid, mix of sweet and tart. Growing up in NE, I know crab apples. This is very refined for a crab apple base. 7 3 6 3 12
