The Munn family has a long history in Herefordshire cider making. In the nineteenth century the Munn’s Red cider apple was recorded in Canon Pyon, and while the apple is also noted in the Herefordshire Pomona, we have been unable to locate any existing trees. In 2012 the family began the transformation of south-facing, four acre site on the England-Wales border and planted some two hundred heritage apple varieties in a traditional open orchard. Over the past twelve years a full bodied sparkling wine has been developed using the ‘methode traditionelle’ and enhanced with the addition of a local apple brandy.
