Wild Arc, Sweetheart Rose 2023

Producer Wild Arc 
Region Hudson Valley, NY, USA
Grape Apples, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Gamay
Farming  Organic
SO2 Minimal

 

NOTES - A fun, continuing experiment in blending apples and grapes. Named after one of Todd’s old bands that never played more than a couple of shows, which felt appropriate for this originally experimental endeavor

Fruit: Apples from an IPM-farmed orchard in Ontario County, North Fork + pomace from Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Gamay

Making of: The cider was pressed directly into tanks containing spent red grape pomace that had already been pressed for wine and then soaked and pressed again for Piquette. After 4 weeks in tanks, we pressed the juice into neutral French oak barrels where it aged for 4 months. Bottled with local wildflower honey to referment in bottle. Unfined, unfiltered, zero SO2 added.

Personality: Like pink Hawaiian Punch: tart, refreshing, and tropical.
