From Patois Ciders + Wines:

Fruit/Site:

53% Goldrush, 14% Ashmeads Kernel, 14% Harrison, 13% Wickson Crab, and 6% mixed crab and seedling apples from Morris Orchard in Monroe, VA. Clays of granitic schist, 950’ elevation. Wil Barnes, grower.

Morris Orchard is a Virginia Century Farm, growing mixed fruits and vegetables and raising cattle.

Season:

Harvest rains tempered ripeness and offered more earthy and herbal flavors. More delicate than 2021 but with plenty of tropical fruit.

Fermentation/Development:

A continuous fermentation carried through the full harvest window from September through December: sorted apples soaked overnight on skins before being pressed into poly tanks. The multiple components were then blended to finish fermentation in the bottle.

Bottles aged on lees for 4 months before being riddled and disgorged by hand.

Tasting:

Fennel pollen, banana cream, melon

Artwork:

Oil pastel inspired by the clays of the site and skin tones of the fruit.

pH: 3.86 | ABV: 9.08% | TA:4.8 g/L | Added SO2: 8 ppm

All fruit ferments without modification. All cider and wine is unfined and unfiltered.
