Maple Moon's Maple Gold Wine
Bottoms Up
By Anna Faller | May 18, 2024
If maple syrup is liquid gold, Maple Moon Sugarbush & Winery in Petoskey has hit the beverage jackpot with their bestselling Maple Gold wine, which blends sugaring with viniculture for a port-style sip steeped in local flavor. It starts with a base of pure maple syrup (sourced from the winery’s own sugar maples), which is fermented on-site in stainless steel tanks and fortified with a bourbon-style spirit. Topped off with even more maple syrup, this 18-percent ABV bevvy is complex with a palette of sweet vanilla and caramel with a decadently-boozy finish. Pair it with a cheese board or some spicy snacks, and revel in your newfound wealth! Treat yourself to a bottle ($29) at Maple Moon Sugarbush & Winery in Petoskey at 4454 Atkins Rd., and be sure to check out their facility tours! mmsyrup.com
