(Thanks, Gene "Travlr") Bottle. A- White wine, slightly sweet, grapes. A- Yellow color, clear liquid, no head. T- White wine, tannins, subtle grass, grapes. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, astringent finish. O- I hate to say this as it was a gift, but this was downright awful. Not a wine guy to start with but I’ve had some good meads and thought this might be fun. No way in hell. Tasted like a cheap grocery store brand white wine. Absolutely no apple or spice or honey or anything in it. Just nasty. I was going to give this the lowest score possible but since I have every rating except a 0.6, I’m giving this a slight node to being not quite the worst thing I’ve ever had.

A cyser, I believe. Bottle. Clear light golden amber color. Aroma of dried apple skins, background of meadow. Taste is lightly spiced and herbal fruit. Semi sweet finish. Nice.
