My daughter and I stopped in for a wine tasting, relatively close to closing time. The person…read moreworking the tasting counter was very gracious, welcomed us in, and took her time explaining all of the characteristics of the wines that we were tasting. She was friendly and very gracious, we did not feel rushed at all. She listened to our preferences and made recommendations. The winds were all delicious, we left with many bottles for ourselves and to share with family. The late harvest (Vendange Tardive) wine is amazing, highly recommend.

She offered so much information on each product which really showed how passionate and knowledgeable she was about her job. She offered us a very descriptive tasting of their delicious products. The cider house is well situated and really modern. The decor is cool and inviting. Their products are mouthwatering. Definitely worth a stop on the wine tour trail while you're in the area.

Domaine Cartier-Potelle is located in an enchanting site on the south flank of Mont Rougemont. The…read moreDomaine is specialized in making high-quality Quebec products, such as apple ciders and wines, you can also go there for apple picking. I went there on a Sunday morning (yes, it's never too early for a drink or two), it was quiet and peaceful, exactly what I needed. In the lobby, I was welcomed by a young lady who explained to me the different tasting options: 4 wines and ciders at their tasting counter for $5 or the Signature Tasting menu for $25, which comes with the tasting of 5 products and a selection of Quebec cheeses and appetizers. I decided to try their Signature option, and took a seat at their terrace, which offers a breathtaking view of the region. The menu was perfect, each product was well explained to me and well-paired. Then, I went for a walk in the orchards of the estate and relaxed in their colorful chairs. It was a very nice experience, I will return for sure.

Excellent experience, surprised at the variety of the cider products. Guide was so pleasant and…read moreinformative. Ice wine was definite fave

Anatomically, the liver is a special organ. It detoxifies stuff, aids in digestion (prob my fave…read morebodily function), and is only found in animals with backbones. Livers even taste good (ILY foie gras). Livers are great and pink is pretty, so in general, drinking booze in moderation is recommended. But. If i were to choose a cider to drink to absurd Dionysian excess, the ciders of Mssr. Michel Jodoin are in my Top 3 of FUCKING GREAT CRAFT CIDERS that I choose to buy by the case whenever I visit my beloved MTL and choose to partake in an abusive relationship with my liver. Correction: the liver is a VERY special organ. The liver is the only visceral organ with the magic ability to regenerate. New livers for all! Drink this cider! :)

We elected to sit outside on the deck under an umbrella. We could hear the band from the Japanese restaurant next door. I ordered a flight which consisted of four ciders that I could choose. The server wrote the initials of my choices on a board and told me what they were. I ordered less sweet, more dry kinds. There were subtle differences between them based on the fruit notes. I did miss getting a Huckleberry flavor like I do when I go to Washington state. Our server was upbeat and friendly even though we only ordered drinks. Tip: To enter, use the doors that say "use other door," I thought the arrow was saying go to an entrance around the building but that was an employee only door.

It was a cold and rainy day so the cider house was a little slow but that didn't stop the cider from flowing!

Everyone is awesome, greeting you with a smile and helping you with recommendations as their menu is extensive. Next time we're in town we will definitely take more time there.

What a beautiful place! We went for lunch, sitting in the back, at the terrace. The waiter was…read moresuper fantastic. We opt it for the lunch menu which includes a cider drink, entrée, main dish, desert and a coffee, just for 35$. I had the sparkling apple cider, which tasted like apple juice. Then a very delicious garden salad, followed by poached salmon with white beans in the tomato sauce. It was perfectly cooked and tasted heavenly. Then for dessert, we mixed fruits with delicious cream and cold latte. Everything was beautifully presented and they tasted really good. Post lunch, we went walk in their fields where apple grow. It was serene. Definitely, recommended.

Came in here and we were the only ones like in the other two cideries. The big difference here is that Du Minot makes A LOT of ciders of all types. The woman helping us guided us through their portfolio and let us try just about everything they offered from bottle pours including pours of specialties and old vintages. Lots of fun. However, most of what they make is okay and not stellar and almost everything can be bought at Marche des Saveurs in Jean Talon Market in Montreal. So go here for the experience, not for specific bottle hunting. I loved trying the ciders and the staff was hilarious and good spirited though possibly already drunk.
