75cl bottle to celebrate our 3rd wedding anniversary. But opened 2 weeks late as I was ill! Deep hazed red appearance. Pinkish white head. Aroma has cherry, almond, vanilla notes. Fuzzy textures on the palate, cherry is prominent, alongside some sherbet dib dabs and almond notes, fine carb, subtle tannin. Pretty interesting. Seems to be more of a cherry wine than a cider, though the keeved cider notes offer a welcome tangent.

750ml bottle from Pilton. Opened with a pop. Reddish-purple colour, short-lived white foam head and aroma of cherries, apple, slight herbal note. Taste is tart, cherry, apple, fleshy, with some light herbal hints. Medium bodied, soft to medium carbonation, dry tart fruity finish. Nicely drinkable.
