Malus Danica Cuvée Royal is produced using the cryo-concentration method. The Discovery apples are pressed into juice immediately after harvest and then frozen. The juice is subsequently thawed outdoors at subzero temperatures, where the water in the juice remains frozen while the sugar, acid, aroma, and color drip off as thick raw syrup. This concentrated “apple syrup” is slowly cold-fermented over 12 months into an intense ice wine.
Cryo-concentration certainly gives us cold hands, but this technique is the fundamental process for all our apple, pear, and quince ice wines. With this method, we can extract the aroma, high sugar content, and retain the intense acidity from the fruit in our wines.
