Organic, classic French style cidre!

This cider is blended from at least a dozen varieties of apples with a predominance of bitter and bittersweet varieties. The two principal varieties are Petit amer and Binet rouge, both local Cotentin varieties. The apples are harvested between October and mid-December once they have fallen to the ground and Marie-Agnès makes several passes for each tree. The apples are conserved in wooden crates to further ripen before being washed, crushed and then pressed in a traditional wooden press. Fermentation occurs from indigenous yeasts at very low temperatures and very slowly. After the cider is racked, it is bottled without the addition of more yeast. It finishes its fermentation in bottle, in a temperature controlled cellar over the course of several months.
