Red Hill, named for the small community just north of Albemarle CiderWorks, is a blend of traditional cider varieties melded with the juice of Winesap and Albemarle Pippin apples that are grown in the red clay soils for which the area is named. It is a complex and earthy dry cider with a bright acidity and tart apple flavor. Red Hill’s light tannin pairs well with lighter meats such as pork, chicken or turkey as well as with oysters, creamy blue cheeses, and veal scallopini.

Apple, airplane cement smell. Clear, very pale yellow. Dry apple, light tartness. Apple core, airplane cement finish. Light body, easy carbonation. Strangely volatile.

750 mL bottle shared at the Baltimore Late Late Summer Gathering, 9/14/13. Pours a clear golden color with a thin ring of white head that lasts. Aroma of dry apples, mealy notes, vanilla. The taste is tart apples, earthy notes, vinous notes, mild earthiness. Medium bodied, lingering tartness.
