This little beauty won Best Fruit Wine at the 2011 All Canadian Wine Championships - and after your first sniff and taste it`s easy to see why. You have to be impressed with this win, especially because it is an iced cider, something that the Quebecois seem to have really sowed up big time. Matt Passafiume told me his secret, I used 80% Spartan apples, but yes, he confirmed, it is made from 100% apples. Hard to believe really, especially with the huge wafting smell of peach coming from the glass, mixed of course with the apple aromas ... the flavours mirror the smells perfectly and finishes with excellent acidity to keep the palate clean and ready for your next sip. And the peach just roars on through. Fantastic job on this little delicacy. Price: $19.95 / 375ml - Rating: **** 1/2+
