Description
Formerly known as 'La Face Cachée De La Pomme' and 'Domaine Neige' but those names no longer legally belong to François Pouliot. But this is the same orchard where the original ice cider producer continues his business after losing his trademark names in a legel settlement with his former business partners.

(750ml bottle from the SAQ) Pours clear pale straw god with a lively fading head of big white bubbles. Notes of sweet and lightly tart baking apple, apple skin tannins, brown sugar sweetness from the ice cider, dry hay, light floral notes, some minerals, finishing semi-sweet with lingering baking apple and soft spice notes. Light to medium bodied with quite high traditional method carbonation. Feels a bit like a sweet sparkling wine crossed with a fairly typical cider, it's not as amazing as their actual ice cider products but fine to open up and pass around at a big family dinner.

Can: Poured a light clear pink color cider with good carbonation. Aroma of apple juice with some sweet raspberry notes. Taste is a mix of sweet apple juice with some fresh raspberry juice. Very refreshing though ends up being overly sweet.
