Still Dry Fine Cider
This 2023 vintage of Orange Cider is Little Pomona's homage to skin-contact wines. Made from a single apple variety, Dabinett, grown in their own Burrell's Meadow Orchard. The apples were harvested at their peak in early November, spontaneously fermented, and then aged in neutral oak barrels for a year.
After a further year resting under cork, this Orange Cider reveals a delightfully rich aromatic profile of perfume, flowers, and yellow fruits. On the palate, it offers a deeply juicy freshness with peach, fragrant spice, and sweet herbs. This complexity is balanced by food-friendly tannins and beautifully pitched acidity. It pairs wonderfully with hearty vegetarian cuisine, cheese boards, and barbecue dishes. Alc. 7.1% vol.
