Torta di Mele – Mead wine

More information about Torta di Mele Our ode to the great white wines of our time. Our Torta di Mele tells the story of an apple pie in the glass and in the mouth, shining in the color of a fresh apple tart and revealing the wonderful aromas of dough, apples and nutmeg.It is made from 97% honey wine, pressed from Eggetaler Frühtracht and 3% apple wine, harvested and selected in Ravensberger Land. It was matured for 18 months on fine lees, including 12 months in a Margaux red wine barrique. The batch contains a total of 228 bottles.Initially dull and restrained onthe nose, it opens up as it swirls in the glass, releasing aromas of cloves, nutmeg and apples, paired with a subtle sweetness and yeasty notes.The palate is slender and aromatic, dominated by apple, a classic honey note, nuts and a hint of yeast dough.What remains are pleasant tannins reminiscent of fresh apple peel, which linger in the mouth as the flavors fade and give an impression of the mead’s ability to age.The Torta di Mele benefits immensely from a food accompaniment – it is best served as a dessert accompaniment to ice cream or cake, fruit yoghurt or fruit salads so that it can show off its full splendor. It is also advisable to allow the mead to breathe beforehand in a glass, preferably large red wine goblets or cognac snifters. Store the product in a cool, dark place – serve at 6 – 8°C and allow to warm slightly in the glass.
