Brew-Blended Wines

written by Gail Sotelo July 15, 2015

“You’ve never liked a drink this much this soon”, said Chad.

I agreed.

Well, he has seen me drink so often that I took his word for it (in my defence, I tried very hard to act cool in Burgundy while having that divine glass of Aloxe-Corton).

Cyrano’s Own Brew-Blended Wines

Going back to the drink I was having at the time that merited Chad’s statement, it was the newest offering of Cyrano, simply called “Brew-Blended Wines”.

By definition, the drinks are classified under the “beer-wine” cocktail category. They come in two flavours: The “White Label” Torrontes-Weizen, and the “Red Label” Sherry-Shiraz-Weizen.

Oh, and did I mention that these are proudly Cyrano’s own concoctions? Alex, the bartender, told me the recent craft beer trend inspired them.

Yummy, creamy Red Label

For that evening, I decided to try the Red Label.

I was immediately blown away.

As Alex said, the taste is reminiscent of a Duvel Stout Ale in terms of flavour profile and effervescence. I personally love the notes of chocolates, raisins, prune, and earthy malt, all tied together with a decadent, creamy texture.

It can be consumed in any situation: A nice dinner, while watching TV, having dinner with friends, watching Eurovision (I have Alex to thank for this), and even on date night (especially if the decision between having wine or beer leads to an impasse).

So, if you’re a traditional beer drinker who wants to develop a taste for wine, a wino looking for a change, or an adventurous drinker willing to try something deliciously different, you should try a carafe (or two) of these fabulous beverages. Tell me what you think. Cheers!


Cyrano is located in C. Palanca corner Legaspi street, Legaspi Village, Makati
