Nine Pin Cider

This Specialty Cider offers an elegant fusion of crisp orchard fruit and sophisticated vinous complexity. Aged in Cabernet Sauvignon barrels, the profile is elevated by distinctive notes of blackcurrant, dark cherry, and a refined tannic structure. The barrel influence imparts subtle whispers of toasted oak and a dry, sophisticated finish reminiscent of a premium rosé wine. At 6.5% ABV, the cider balances a bright, refreshing acidity with a structured depth, showcasing a harmonious interplay between the tartness of fermented apples and the berry-forward character of the wine-soaked wood. Its character is both refreshing and notably complex, bridging the gap between cider and fine wine.

Appearance. Distinctive pale salmon to light ruby hue; brilliant clarity; minimal head formation with rapidly dissipating bubbles typical of a sparkling cider.

Aroma. High intensity of fresh red apple skins followed by prominent vinous notes of blackberry and currant; subtle oak-derived vanilla and a light, clean lactic acidity.

Taste. Initial impression of tart apple and bright red berries; features flavors of fermented apple juice, red grape skins, and dark cherry; zero hop bitterness, though significant structural tannin provides a dry, wine-like bite; finish is clean, dry, and slightly astringent with lingering fruit notes.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a crisp, sparkling carbonation; moderate astringency from barrel tannins; light alcohol warmth that is well-integrated; no creaminess.
