750ml bottle. Vintage 2016. Sparkling, orangey-gold amber colour, short-lived fizzy white foam head and aroma of tangy apple, oak, caramel. Taste is sweetish, fruity apple, woody oak and caramel hints, with some light earthy funk and drying tannin. Light to medium bodied, spritzy carbonation, dry finish. Nicely drinkable.

75cl bottle. Pours a deep clear orange. Aroma has pleasant caramelised apple, stewed apple. Taste is vibrantly fruity, good stewed apple with soft gripping dusty tannins. Exceptionally drinkable with a light natural carbonation. Another excellent keeved cider from Pilton.
