A blend of wine piquette from Muscat, Cabernet Franc, De Chaunac and Seyval Blanc grapes, plus apple piquette (Ciderkin), with a few dark plums for good measure.
For the uninitiated, piquette is an historical beverage, originally made by farmhands
France. You take pressed grape skins, soak them in water, and press them again to make a low-ABV wine.
With this vintage, Revel added an apple piquette to the grapes (technically called Ciderkin), and blended everything into these cans — which could only be dubbed Piquette Ultra.
Piquette Ultra is surprisingly complex for something made to chug.
The aroma is lychee juice and candied rhubarb. But the flavour is a mind boggling amount of fruit, purple flowers and a saline, plum stone undertone. Its rich and delicious and I want to think about it a lot, but you really dont have to.
Sunny and gorgeous, its quite possibly Revels best piquette yet.
