N.V. Dessert Wine. This was the D.H. Lescombes Ratafia. Sweet and honeyed. Very good. — 4 years ago
I am absolutely loving these south hill ciders. So fresh and so clean. Nice sweetness on this one but tastes like apple, apple skin, a hint of pear actually, and a bit of citrus. So tasty! Batch 1701 — 4 years ago

Incredible briskness and freshness on the nose of seashell, lily and golden russet apple with a butterscotch undercurrent. Palate is zippy with amazing density. The acid itself is almost astringent at first, like the juice of the pineapple core, but mellows out and reveals other flavors like yellow plum, apple, kiwi and fondant, all braced by stony minerals. There’s a subtly sweetness on the long finish that makes this approachable now, but it really needs much more time.
This wine is endless. I mean still improving on night 5 when I couldn’t not finish it. — 2 years ago
Very interesting made from combining distilled leftovers from champagne process and mixing with grape juice — a year ago
