Rocinante'
Apples, Sonoma, California 2021Â
A drinkable history lesson through fruit and fermentation. Cidermakers and high school pals, Aaron Brown and Colin Blackshear, began Bardos in 2019, greatly inspired by the ciders of Somerset and Wales in the UK. They are grounded by the desire to translate the deep, apple-laden history of California through a low-intervention lens. Tracking down centennial trees and land owners open to sharing their (usually) forgotten or unused fruit was the name of their game, but has since moved to steadfast stewardship and paying homage to all the people who have shaped the land. To create ‘Rocinante’, they traveled to various counties, to collect King, Summer Banana, Baldwin, and Spitzenberg from a historic homestead orchard, and York Imperial, Rhode Island Greening, Winesap & Rome Beauty from a family farm. Leaning more towards an alpine white wine, ‘Rocinate’ is almost definitely like no cider you’ve ever tasted. Drink while listening to Ologies ‘Pomology’ and ‘Ciderology’ episodes back to back.back.
