Meridale Cider Manor (Merridale Cidery) is the only cider factory on Vancouver Island. There are not only apple orchards and brewing workshops, but also large lawns, souvenir shops and well-known restaurants. In addition, there are even several yurt-style hotel rooms. The Manor is also popular. The resort and the wedding venue. The apple orchard in the winery at first glance looks no different from the usual domestic ones, except for the red fruit on the ground no one picks the apples for winemaking, but waits for them to mature naturally, pick them up and collect them, clean them, Juicing and brewing. After visiting the cider brewing process, Janete, the owner of the winery, took us to the bar in the distillery - the most anticipated wine tasting session came as scheduled. The cider is a good pre-dinner wine, refreshing and sweet, and it promotes appetite. Several ciders in Meridale taste different, and the food used to serve wine - snacks, cheese and ham. In addition to the basic cider, the "Cowichan Spirit" series produced by Meridale also has gin, vodka, apple brandy, dried brandy... The 43-degree gin entrance is not spicy at all, especially smooth, and with a distinctive fruity fragrance. The sommelier looks like Joseph, with a super rich expression and a good atmosphere. These wines have undergone multiple cultivation, faded from the original shape of the fruit and turned into the mellow fragrance that is now in the mouth and nose.
