Stone & Key Cellars Ice Apple Cider

Stone & Key Cellars Ice Apple Cider

Stone & Key Cellars Ice CiderA friend from Pennsylvania brought this to dinner one night and I served it with a salted caramel dessert, which was an okay pairing but would have been better with a dessert not so sweet.  

This ice cider is produced from a blend of apples grown and pressed by Solebury Orchard. The juice is then cryo-concentrated and fermented by Stone & Key Cellars.

It’s golden in the glass with an unmistakable ripe apple aroma. It’s definitely sweet, but not cloyingly so with fresh flavors and some acidity on the finish.

Pairings: Foie gras, blue cheese, desserts that aren’t overly sweet – stone fruit tarts, roasted figs.

Style: Dessert Wine

Grape Type(s): Apple
