Fable Farm, "Jalu [Sparkling]" 2020

A cider/wine hybrid comprised of organic apples and a blend of white, red and grey grapes (Frontenac Blanc, Frontenac Gris and St. Croix).

From Fable Farm: "This is a medley of foraged cider apples and Vermont grown grapes. Aged in barrels for 9 months. 55% macerated cider and 45% white, red and grey grapes: Frontenac Blanc, Frontenac Gris and St. Croix, hailing from Ellison Estate, Lincoln Peak, and Monroe Vineyards. The wines were aged in barrels for three months and then blended with the house cider. Out came Jalu, a Rainbow Body. Upon bottling, a tirage of fresh juice from the 2020 harvest was added for a secondary fermentation in bottle."
