A blend of Cortland and bitter sweet apples with Cabernet Franc skins macerated during fermentation. Lightly sparkling cider with berry aromas and loads of tannins giving it body. Delicious served with food. Native yeast fermentation, unfiltered, and with no added sulfites.
Apples are hand harvested, then, for the fruit that needs it, stored in an attic in order to slightly dehydrate the fruit and increase the concentration. The juice is racked into large barrels where it ferments for about six months. The juices are bottled partially fermented and continue to ferment in the bottle, resulting in a natural carbonation.
