For 60 years, our domain has developed by mastering different crops, such as fruit, fodder, cereals. In 1984, we gave priority to the cultivation and processing of apples, without however renouncing our organic heritage.

75cl bottle from Stirchley Wines. Pours a deep gold with a darkened sweet apple aroma. Taste presents a deep rosy apple character, with cassonade and oak barrel notes. Resonant and interesting.

75cl bottle from Stirchley Wines. Pours clear gold with a mild apple juice aroma. Taste is muted in comparison, extremely light and weak with very little cider character. Disappointing.

Bottled. Pale yellowish golden colour with a small white head. Aroma is apples, mild yeastyness as well as some slight rubbery notes. Flavour is nicely balanced apples, yeast, some mild vanilla and wood as well. Pleasant palate too for being only 4.5 % abv.

Sampled from bottle at Craft Beer Co., London. Bottle was brought to the pub by someone. First cider ever. Pale white / yellow color, small shite lacing. Smell is awful: sour, rotten fruit, barnyard, apples, manure. Tastes quite decent, a bit sweet, some sourness, apple and lightly alcohol. Low body.
