Winter Calville Indulgence Box

Kohl Grand Cru – Wintercalville – Magnum in Gift Box

The Kohl Grand Cru Wintercalville is a unique mountain apple juice. That is why Thomas Kohl deliberately bottles the delicious juice of Wintercalville, an old apple variety, in a magnum bottle. It showcases the high value and very special quality of the Kohl Grand Cru mountain apple juice Wintercalville.

He had a special, award-winning gift box developed specifically for his special Grand Cru apple juices. This way, you can gift a magnum bottle of mountain apple juice directly, already beautifully packaged. The elegant gift box includes a variety description.

Of course, Kohl only uses apples from his own cultivation. In his cidery, he prefers to press old apple varieties, and only as direct juice. The apple's flesh is yellowish, tender, very fine and loose, with a scent of white peach and juicy, yellow plums – and this results in a distinctive, characterful mountain apple juice. 

Wintercalville – a noble old apple variety

Wintercalville: The name alone ignites the imagination and takes thoughts on a journey to a cold land under a blanket of snow – a journey that the Wintercalville surprisingly actually made:

When word of this excellent apple reached the Tsar's court, and the "Meraner Calville Exportgesellschaft" soon delivered it there. The Wintercalville apple truly has a long lineage, dating back to the Middle Ages. Likely originating from Normandy, the Wintercalville was widely distributed and highly sought after for a long time, even in the highest circles: It was grown in the orchards of King Louis XIII in Orléans. And in France, this apple, which has become rare here, is still considered a gourmet apple and is served for dessert and often used for apple pie. The Wintercalville tree is sensitive and needs strong, good, warm soil, which Thomas Kohl can provide on the Ritten.

Kohl Grand Cru – naturally cloudy and single-variety

The Kohl Grand Cru mountain apple juice is pressed as direct juice from the old apple variety Wintercalville. Kohl leaves the juice naturally cloudy and bottles it in magnum bottles. The apple juice is gently pasteurized in the bottle and not filtered. Single-variety mountain apple juice is a specialty of Thomas Kohl, which is particularly evident in the Wintercalville apple juice: Fine aromas of white peach and yellow plums. A uniquely delicious interplay of aromas.

Serve the Wintercalville apple juice well chilled at 8 - 12°C and ideally enjoy it with pasta, vegetarian dishes, light meat, or as an aperitif.
