Revel Cider - Chanter la Pomme (2021)

STAFF PICK
Blend of cider with red & blue plums (42%), Muscat from Lincoln Niagara (30%) and Seyval Blanc aged on Wickson crabapples pomace (28%).

Revel Cider & ibi wines started in 2014 as a solo passion project. Imagine our excitement when it turned out that, hey, lots of folks are fermentation enthusiasts!

By 2021, our team was seven people strong — with over 1000 cases of Revel cans and bottles shipped to discerning drinkers every month.

Our characterful native yeast fermentations explore the endless flavours Ontario has to offer. Combining farm-grown and foraged fruits, discovering what the fermentation process yields, and aiming to bring out the best of each ingredient is what makes us excited to come to work every day. (Well, that, and all the incredible smells.)

Chanter la Pomme has big watermelon aromas with a hint of violets too. The body of the Seyval bolsters the sweet aromatics, while silky plum stones and astringent crabapple tannins bring it back to earth.

Bringing new palettes into our space always opens new doors for us. With Cidres Intrus, our goal was to flesh out our watermelon-y Muscat with the body/acid of Seyval Blanc and the tannins of our red and blue plums.
