Service

As an apéritif
With pâtés, foie gras, game or poultry
With spicy dishes
With fine cheeses, particularly blue or goat cheeses, aged cheddar or brie
With desserts including, of course, many apple-based classics
On its own, as a digestif, to end a perfect meal

Tasting notes

EYE
Rich golden color with orange highlights.

NOSE
Fresh apples, cinnamon and spice, with a hint of honey.

PALATE
Opulent, intense and complexly flavored; evocative of fine ice wines or Sauternes.
Its sweetness is exquisitely balanced by acidity that keeps it from being cloying and makes for a clean finish.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS
Serve well chilled (5°C). Enjoy as an aperitif, with foie gras, fine cheeses, a variety of desserts, or on its own to end a perfect meal.

Characteristics

Stunning richness
Incredible complexity… made from a blend of 6 varieties of apples
Exceptionally balanced… fresh apple taste with a sweet, smooth finish
A naturally made ice cider… without added sugar or alcohol

Reviews & comments

DAVID LAWRASON, TORONTO LIFE
92 points – Domaine’s brilliant amber-coloured ice cider is a thick, sweet apple and caramel potion with vibrant acidity. Awesome with apple pie and aged cheddar.

GORD STIMMELL, TORONTO STAR
94 Points – …the best cider in Canada… Utterly hedonistic… The sparkling equivalent is equally amazing.

NICK HAMILTON, EDITOR-IN-CHIEF, LA BARRIQUE MAGAZINE
90 Points – Excellent – Amber in colour with orange highlights. Apple and dry cider nose. Very good acidity, gentle yet persistent. A refreshing taste. Must be discovered.
