Revel Cider (Guelph, ON)

Dressed Up To Party is a co-ferment of apples + dark plums, Gewürztraminer and skin contact Seyval Blanc. It's bright and whimsical, like rosé from a brighter timeline. The blend is 85% cider macerated on whole red and blue plums for 8 months, 5% Gewürztraminer and 10% Seyval Blanc, fermented on skins for 3 months. The apple/plum co-ferment has transformed the rich, sweet plum skins into an aroma that might remind you of marshmallows. It's not sweet at all, but the marshmallow note balances crunchy apple acids and sticky Seyval Blanc tannins perfectly. It drinks like fruit gusher filling and overripe pineapples with that tart crunch factor we all just love.
