Labor Day Hours
The Winery will be open 12-5 on Monday.
Pear Wine disappearing quickly.
This year’s batch of Pear Wine is moving fast. Charles made a smaller batch, tweaking the recipe. The tweaks worked great – but the batch won’t last through September. Make plans to come visit and get yours soon.

Hours the week of 7/4
This is certainly cider drinking weather. So here’s a heads up on winery hours. We won’t have any appointments available on the Fourth. But Milissa is at the Winery today (7/3). And Friday hours start noon this week.
Update on Milissa’s Challenge
As I noted last week, while Milissa was away on a trip, she set me a challenge – to make 9 times her mid-week sales in the Tasting Room. Now that’s a high bar for this time of year, as she had some great mid-week appointment guests. Charlotte and I put in our best effort on Saturday, and you all flocked in. Counting both days, we came in at 8 times Milissa’s number. _Almost_ to her goal. To look at that another way, you all took home 68% (!!) more AeppelTreow Cider than the same weekend last year. And that’s a success no matter how you look at it.
Perry is back for Mother’s Day
Milissa, Marianne and Bill put in a hard day today and got some Perry ready for Mother’s Day. So our medium sweet pear sparkler is back!
Irregular Hours 3/16-3/18
We have a busy weekend planned, prepping products and bottling them. So we’ll be there roughly 10-4 Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
We have Barn Swallow Cider, Kinglet Bitter Cider and Orchard Oriole Perry back on the shelves! Saturday we are bottling Pommeaux and Poirissimo.
Update 3/11/12
Added the rest of the basic pages for the Song Bird Ciders: Oriole Perry, Kinglet Bitter, Red Poll, Bunting and Sparrow Spiced.
Note to self: Add key for the sweetness and tartness scales somewhere, and add a post telling the story of ‘Why Songbirds’.
