Piquette is an historical beverage, originally made by farmhands in France. They'd take pressed grape skins, soak them in water, and press them again to make a low-ABV wine, to have something crushable to drink during hot days in the field. With this vintage, we left Vidal grape skins to soak in water for 8 days, pressed them a second time and blended the small wine with a little strawberry cider. What's it like? Strawberry Vidal Piquette is a delightfully juicy thing that makes us crave summer more than anything we've tasted in the last few months. The aroma is honeyed Vidal, interwoven with delicate, perfectly ripe strawberry. Fine tannins lend weight and body; this blend feels surprisingly big for something meant to be light. Jasmine, green apple, and candied plum round it all out. This vintage is sunny and delightful. 6.5% ABV | $14.50 / 750mL Ingredients: Grapes, apples, strawberries, water. Gluten free. Wild ferment.
