From a favorite local vineyard. They never disappoint. This tastes like a margarita in wine form. Delish! — 7 years ago

Transports you straight to the orchards... Mandarin orange, peaches and nectarines, wet soil and herbal notes. Eyes closed you might almost think it's a sour fruit beer. Noticeable tannin and larger body with white wine fruit profile. Can't get over how it's just like an extremely low carb sour! 11.5 abv is icing on the cake. — 9 years ago
Still dry apple cider. A bit oxidative. Great fruit flavor and a touch of caramel and nut. Not really dirty at all. — 10 years ago
Visited Iron Horse vineyards in March of 2011 with Cham and the Wallers. It was magical!! Loved the beautiful setting amid orchards and rustic tasting area. Wonderful atmosphere and great wines, with this one being my favorite. We dream of returning. — 10 years ago
My favorite cider. A sweeter cider but well balanced and slightly spicy for an overall great flavor profile. Their Saskatoon cider is great if you are looking for something a little sweeter and more unusual. — 10 years ago
Stunningly good cool climate SB. Crystalline and pure, zippy and intense minerality. Great weight, styled like a classic Sancerre or Pouilly Fume. Long elevage. Chestnut and acacia. Vineyards sit on the slopes above apple orchards. Very steep terrain. Phoenollically ripe. Delicious. — 6 years ago

EnRoute was established in the Russian River Valley in 2007 by the partners of Napa Valley’s Far Niente winery and introduced its first wine, “Les Pommiers,” in May 2009, and named for the apple orchards that once flourished in the region. Complex fruit aromas with floral and mineral notes. On the palate cherry and raspberry flavors with tobacco and smoky oak, well structured tannins. Nice mouthfeel, zesty acidity ending with mineral and oak tones. Nice! Tasting Sample. — 8 years ago

Label says Homestead Cider, Dry, 8% ABV, produced and bottled in Port Townsend WA, but “crafted from heirloom apples grown in homestead orchards in Washington’s Olympic Peninsula”. Pale yellow with green tinge, hazy clarity with pinpoint bubbles. Slight head after pour, ring of foam and bubbles persists on edge of glass. Funk and complex apple profile in nose. Rich dry complex flavors, difficult to pull apart but my initial reaction was “Wow”. Style is consistent with a farmhouse or craft style production, but very well done. Good stuff, rich, fruity and at times it does taste like applesauce (Gravensteins?), with an interesting combination of acidity, flavors and aromas, but definitely dry. It does seems pricey given the simple package and label, and the bottle is elegant with a resealable closure so it’s also reusable but yes, there is really great cider inside. Worth seeking out, and worth every penny spent. — 6 years ago
Petrol and pineapple. Dry to the point of being austere. Delicious — 9 years ago
This is another wonderful wine from SanAntonio Winery in California. This Opaque 2010 Malbec. The cork was perfect. The color is obviously opaque with a rim of purple. The legs are long and thick. The bouquet is reminiscent of violets and ripe fig tree orchards. The initial palate is blackberry and raspberry, rhubarb pie. The finish is moderately long with a hint of sour apple and butter. There is no dryness and it is rather light in character. A beautiful ending to a beautiful wine!

This was amazing. I’ve never had anything like it. The story told to me about this liquor is that the fruit comes from old old orchards on or near the Chave estate. Apricot trees used to be a big crop for the region a long time ago! this is a sublime drink — 6 years ago
