Product Description: Pomme Pomme Pomme — our first venture into cider. An apple pet-nat blended from seven varieties (Zestar, Gala, McIntosh, Northern Spy, Golden Delicious, Empire, Spartan). Striking pink hue, true apple aromatics. 9.4% ABV.
Tasting Notes: A striking pink hue and authentic apple aroma lead to a palate that's fresh, crisp, and finishes clean — a true celebration of apple varieties in every sip.
Winemaker's Notes: We harvested our apples by hand over several weeks and manually ground them for fermentation with natural yeasts on the skins. Unlike grape presses that gently extract juice, apple presses crush the harder fruit — and lacking an apple press, we chose skin fermentation. This naturally softened the apples for pressing into a smooth "sauce" and let us harness the aromatic oils from the apple skins, enhancing the pet-nat with a richer, more authentic apple aroma than traditional methods.
