Description
Overture is a 50/50 blend of cider and culinary apples from the 2020 season. The Cider apples were vinified in oak to soften up the tannins and the eating apples in stainless steel to preserve their fresh acidity for 10 months. It was then bottled and rested on lees for 23 months before disgorging this month. In Peter’s own words:
This fruity and playful blend perfectly captures the diverse nature of the humble apple. We oak vinify the bittersweet and bittersharp apples to carefully soften the tannins and then brighten the profile by adding oak and steel vinified culinary apples. The result is a palate full of freshness but with a lovely dash of complexity from the cider apples.
Crisp, fruity with notes of toffee, toast and lemon peel. The perfect pairing for hard cheeses and cold cuts.
