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.

2005 bottle, 3rd LCRBM. Apple pie and citrus in the aroma. Sour and syrupy. Very sweet but still perfectly balanced because of the fruity sourness. Citrus, lychee, pineapple, apple pie with a hint of cinnamon. The flavor is very close to perfection.

Recolte 2007, thanks Julien Huxley! Golden color. Concentrated Apple juice, dominant oak and vanilla in the aroma. Liquorish sweet flavor with Apple, vanilla, peppermint and oak. Full bodied. Complex. Vinous. A delight!

Golden-brown. Nice legs, rich sweet apple, brown sugar, just a touch of spice, rich, but balanced, just a touch of alcohol. Kind of absurd.
