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.
Flavor and Aroma:
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.”
