Description
Expand your palate and discover the world of cider through the lens of a wine lover. While cider is crafted from apples instead of grapes, its fermentation process mirrors winemaking, utilizing wild or cultivated yeasts to develop complex aromas, flavors, and textures. In this class, you'll explore the fascinating parallels between cider and wine, from still, petillant, and effervescent champagne-style ciders to their nuanced flavor profiles. Learn to assess acidity, tannins, and mouthfeel as you compare cider to your favorite wines--whether crisp whites or robust reds. Perfect for wine enthusiasts looking to sip beyond the vineyard, this tasting experience offers a new perspective on an age-old craft.
