Description
Founded in Herefordshire.
Pressed, fermented, and bottled in Gloucestershire.

Dunkertons history reaches back to 1980 when Ivor and Susie Dunkerton made the decision to escape London and buy a small holding in Pembridge, Herefordshire. They realised that with such a small amount of land they needed to specialise in some form of agriculture and spotted that traditional cider making presented a fantastic opportunity.

In 2014 Ivor and Susie passed Dunkertons to their son Julian and his business partner Bean.

In 2016 the production business relocated to our new state of the art cidery at Dowdeswell Park, Cheltenham.

Bottle from Appellation Wines Comely Bank. Appearance - golden with steady bubbles. Nose - light straw, bruised green apple. Taste - green apple skin, more bruised apple. Booze quite obvious. Palate - close to medium bodied, tangy through the middle. Very dry finish. Overall - good thirst quencher. The high acid hides the fact that it's supposed to be medium.

Bottle from Real Foods. Nose is crisp apple, dried apple chips, vanilla, wood. Palate is super dry apple, pear, white wine finish. Super dry and pretty strong, reminds me of a heavily carbonated most. Works, but not super well.
