Does Whatever A Cider Can

TASTING NOTES:
Regular - “The distinct aromas of Golden Delicious and Gala apples leap from the glass. Crisp acidity and the perfect touch of sweetness make this hard cider perfect until the last drop!” (AbV 5.50%, pH 3.6, TA 7.70, RS 4.00)

Cherry - “Delicious Montemorency cherries leap from the glass, followed by hints of almond on the palate. This truly is Michigan Cherry Apple Cider!” (AbV 5.50%, pH 6.7, TA 9.20, RS 6.00)

APPELLATION:
MICHIGAN.

TANGENTIALLY RELATED FACT to help you make conversation over this wine:
Written for the 1967 animated series, the “Spider-Man” theme song was composed by the pair Paul Francis Webster and Robert Harris. Despite being sung by 12 CBC vocalists, they were paid only for the session and never received residuals with its subsequent uses. While they probably didn’t expect it to be so popular, c’mon, guys, throw ‘em a bone.

PAIRS WITH (winery recommended):
Asian, Indian, Mexican flair, cheese, shellfish.

OR (really-going-with-the-theme-option):
Spider crab.
