Raspberry Wine

AROMA & FLAVOR
Ripe, red raspberry swirls into the brandy vapors and offers a clean delivery of the summer’s fresh harvest. Flavor spreads across the palate. A little tart, a little sweet, a little amazing.

PAIRINGS & SERVING SUGGESTIONS
Serve just a few ounces at room temperature in an elegant cordial glass. Delightful drizzled on ice cream or baked into a sumptuous dessert. Add to a vinaigrette for a succulent salad dressing. Add a dash to a dry sparkling cider for a romantic “Love & Bubbles” cocktail.

PRODUCTION NOTES
Raspberry wine is fermented from organic raspberry juice. The whole fruit raspberries are digested by pectic enzymes and the resulting mash is lightly fermented. Fermentation is halted by the addition of apple brandy, custom-distilled for Finnriver by Admiralty. Back sweetened to taste.

Welcome to Cider Nerd!

ci·der nerd
/ˈsīdər nərd/
noun
1. a single minded expert in the alcoholic drink made from fermented fruit

This is your one stop shop for hard cider ratings and reviews! Think of this as Yelp or IMDB, but dedicated to hard cider. Use that search bar up top to search for ciders by name, sweetness, ingredients or the cidery they come from.

This is a project of passion for me, and I will work to add new ciders and features continuously. Come back frequently to see what's been added and changed!

What sets us apart?

How sweet or dry a cider can be is only sometimes advertised on the bottle, and even when that is on the bottle it can be different than how an average cider drinker would perceive how sweet or dry that cider is. The perfect example is that many ciders are advertised as "semi-dry" when many people would describe them as "sweet". Here at Cider Nerd, we primarily show the average dryness/sweetness based on what our users have told us. This gives you a better idea of just how dry or sweet a cider will actually taste to you.
