Taste the flavors of northern Michigan in this unique dessert wine made from local apples and Michigan maple syrup.
Black Star Farms adds brandy to apple wine, then adds locally made maple syrup for that final fall touch.
“This dessert wine is distinctively apple-layered with sweet barrel aromas. The maple flavor stands out and lingers long on the finish, while the brandy adds warmth to the palate.”
An amazing dessert wine value, sold in a full-size 750ml bottle.
Pairings:
This dessert wine pairs wonderfully with fall-inspired sweet treats. Some recommendations include pecan pie, pumpkin cheesecake, and traditional apple pie.

Black Star Farms produces this beautifully fragrant, port-style dessert wine from estate-grown sweet black cherries, fortified with their own cherry brandy and sweetened with tart cherry juice. Then barrel aged for nine months in American oak.
Ripe black cherry fruit and mildly toasted oak complement the warmth of the brandy.
Pairs with:
Rich chocolate desserts! Or add to your chocolate bread pudding recipe or simply pour over ice cream. You’ll also love Sirius Cherry Dessert Wine with sharp cheeses such as bleu and Romano.
Winemaker Comments:
“Our distillation operation enables us to craft exceptional port-style wines that incorporate our local fruit. We consider this to be one of the best methods for preserving black cherries.”
