Wignac Cidre Rose offers a delicate and sophisticated sensory experience driven by its blend of 88% pure apple juice and 12% pure grape juice. The profile opens with a vibrant bouquet of fresh-pressed orchard apples and soft floral undertones. On the palate, the sweetness of the apples is elegantly balanced by a light vinous character and subtle tartness from the grape juice, creating a refined rosé aesthetic. This Cider with Other Fruit finishes clean and crisp, with a lingering hint of red berry and grape skin, delivering a refreshing and naturally fruit-forward profile that emphasizes purity and balance.
Appearance.Brilliant clarity with a pale salmon-pink or rosé hue. Effervescent with a quick-fading white head that leaves minimal lacing.
Aroma.Moderate to high intensity of fresh, ripe red apples. A distinct but delicate vinous note from the grape juice adds complexity, reminiscent of white flowers and light red berries. Clean fermentation with no sulfur or phenolic notes.
Taste.Initial impression is of sweet, juicy apples followed by a mild grape-derived acidity. The grape juice contribution provides a light tannic structure and a hint of berry-like fruitiness. Bitterness is absent. The finish is balanced-sweet and remains clean and highly refreshing.
Mouthfeel.Light body with a crisp, lively carbonation that dances on the tongue. Smooth texture with no alcohol warmth and very low astringency from the grape skins.
