Harvest Cyser

Harvest Cyser Wine Details
Price: $25.00 per bottle

Description: Medovina Harvest Cyser is produced by combining premium honey with organic Colorado Western Slope apple cider. This blend (known as Cyser) is then fermented in the same way as grapes are fermented to produce wine. It differs from hard cider in several ways. Most importantly Medovina Harvest Cyser has significantly higher alcohol, almost double that of hard cider. It is less acidic, especially with regard to volatile acid (VA) and has a more subtle expression of apples. Notes of honey are evident. It is more mead like than cider like.

Varietal Definition
Cyser:
Fermented beverage made from honey and apples or apple cider (apple juice in Europe). Can also be made with peach, cherry or pear cider.
