Argelette, named after the stony schist found locally, is a complex blend and made from the maximum amount of varieties, from the oldest trees that particular year has to offer.
A vinous sydre which keeps well thanks to its balance between matter, acidity, roundness and minerality. (5% depending on the vintage).

Bottle. Pours a slightly hazy golden color with a small white lace. Has a fruity slightly dry apple aroma. Dry fruity smooth apple flavor with some very soft tart hints. Has a sweetish fruity dry apple finish.

Hazy amber. Soft effervescence. Very sweet and slightly smokey. Toasty with a sweet finish. Very soft. Delicious - those smokey nuances make this a very original and enjoyable cider.

2005 bottle thanks to thecheeseman, shared with angrypirate06 and ilovedarkbeer. Pours with a frothy white head that remains in a ring for the duration of the experience. Very nice hazed golden body underneath. Aroma is everything that a Normandy cider should be: Dry with notes of cheese, band-aids, caramel, bitter crab apples and tons of phenols. This cider is extremely drinkable. Taste is very complex and lingers in your mouth for a minute or two. Smokey notes with band-aid, sweetness, slight medicinal quality, and a caramel, fresh apple sweetness. Lively bubbles, lush mouthfeel.

Bottle. Cloudy light brown drink with a mildly sweet apple aroma and a very dry apple and slightly spritzy flavour. Overall an average drink.
