Ouilly-le-Vicomte, France
What Our Editors Thought
“A red floral note and burnt caramel note on the nose carries through into the sip where it balances the sweet but rich and meaty fruit flavor.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Great nose, effervescent, strong fruit initially, then hints of must and perfume. Soft floral, woody notes with light cinnamon. Semisweet, pear-like in its earthiness. Pleasant, refreshing, balanced. Not as tannic as most French ciders.”
What the Brewers Say
“Pear cider produced from four local varieties.”
