Bottle - Nice sweet cooked Apple with a bit of red peel. Clear gold with some small bubbles. Carbonation may not be seen but the ’bite’ is evident. Flavours are bolder and brighter with a sweetness and bit of skin.

Tasting at Matt’s; corked
Beautiful bright golden color. Wonderful aroma, stewed apples, a lot of acidity, mild hazelnuts. Sweet luscious, the mild carbonation adds a dynamic touch; apple syrup, rich, a bit less deep in the final.
Excellent.

375mL bottle, pours a clear caramel colour with a small fizzy white head that dissipates quickly. Aroma brings out loads of caramel, toffee, and lovely stewed apples. Flavour is decadent, with a great balance of green apples, caramel, toffee, and baked and stewed apples. The carbonation actually changes this in a lovely way, bringing out a crisp apple quality on the finish. Not quite as awesome as the regular Summit Selection, but certainly exquisite.

At Matt’s place. Very sweet apples and spices in the aroma. Almost same in the taste in which apples become sourer. Excellent.

2011 vintage. 200mL bottle, pours a hazy golden with a few bubbles of head. Aroma brings out baked apples, caramel, and butterscotch. Flavour is complex as hell, with notes of vanilla, butterscotch, baked apples, and caramel. Amazing depth, with loads of butterscotch and baked apples on the finish. Phenomenal.
