As I recall, here’s another tasty one in our cider study. Lost my notes, so here’s so info I dug up online:
Dry - balanced and fruity with hints of pear and yellow stone fruit.
100% single-variety and fully ripe hand-collected gray renets. Harvested at the beginning of October in our organic fruit meadows Mutzengraben and Hinter der Höll. Crisp dry and yet with fruity melt, it is a wonderful cider with development potential. Memory of a golden autumn blessing!
Grey renets exist worldwide in many varieties whose kinships have not yet been researched. However, they all have one thing in common: they are gray rusty, all look the same and even experts find it difficult to distinguish the individual varieties. The gray-renette is the gray swan among apples - unobtrusively dressed, but unique in its fruit. It is mild fruity and finely sour seasoned. We remove them dry and like to let them mature. This gives it an elegance - like a good Pinot Gris.
