Finally, for today at least, we moved down the road to one of Prince Edward County's best-loved beverage manufacturers: County Premium Cider. I won't go into details (they all tasted a lot like apple), but we loved the Waupoos Premium Cider and plan to bring it to a future ZenKitchen dinner. It's really, very appley.
The Cider company also offers a couple of interesting wines:
County Indian Point Apple Wine, made from Northern Spy. It's, well, kind of like dry, flat cider.
County Premium Cider Pinot Noir 2006
Made from grapes grown in the nearby Roberto Lorenzoni vineyard and oaked for 8 months in French barrels, this is an OK Pinot. Very high tannins and a long tannic finish, it may round out in the future.
County Premium Cider Prince Edward County Ice Cider
Made from a blend of Russet, Ida Red and Northern Spy apples, it tastes of cinnamon and apples - like apple pie in a glass! Lovely, and it may well make its way to the ZenKitchen list, too.
