Two bottles split amongst family during a post Christmas get together. Cute labels. :-) Clear, dark golden honey body. Faintly fizzy. Faint whiff of apple cores & tart apple flesh. Assuming this is somewhat sweet. A little old wood helps give it just a bit more character. Taste is strong and intense apples, sweet, tart and tannic. Woody, with tons of bitter skin to cut the sweetness. Thin, but not runny. Low on sulfites. I really enjoyed this. Great six pack cider.

Sampled during the wine tasting at Cartecay Vineyards. Dark, caramel, orange color, with no head. Nose is red delicious apples, caramel, and some light cinnamon and cloves. Sweet flavor, with only a hint of tartness. Medium body, creamy, and velvety. This is a nice, rich cider.
