Revel Cider - Wildling (750 mL)
Revel Cider's Wildling is from their Traditional Cider lineup. A limited, small-batch cider - only 16 cases were made and we were lucky to get our hands on half of them for our Cider Club!
Made with a blend of nearly 50 different apple varieties and pears all wild foraged within a few kilometers of Revel's cidery in Guelph, Ontario. The fruit was pressed and allowed to spontaneously ferment with native/naturally occurring yeast from the fruit. Unfiltered and unfined, with no added sulfites. Bottled just prior to fermentation completing for a sparkling Pét Nat cider that stays as true as possible to the wild fruit.
Tasting notes: Dry cider (ever so slightly off-dry), with high acidity, medium-minus tannins. Tart green apple flavors with a sour kick (pleasantly acetic). Floral notes, candied lemon, and apple skin.
From Revel: Wild apples are the epitome of Ontario terroir. What better way to experience this special place than through wild fruit grown without human intervention? In the fall of 2023 we picked nearly 50 varieties of apples, crabapples and pears within a few km of our cidery—in Guelph, Kitchener, Waterloo, Breslau and Erin. Soft funk on the nose gives way to crabapple skin tannins, balanced by pear sweetness and that wonderful round apple aroma you get when you accidentally tread on one in the fall.
