Ciderie du Leguer "Premium" NV

Ciderie du Leguer "Premium" NVCdric's top cider is made with roughly three quarters highly acidic and astringent apples. He crushes these, allowing them to macerate with the pomace overnight to quell the overt harshness. The other quarter of the cuve is made up of fruity, sweeter apples to balance the intensity of the others. Powerful and wildly tannic with chewy, sinewy structure. Certified Biodynamic Zero Sulfur Added

Fermented in one-third new puncheon and two-thirds neutral barrels

with more dimension and balance
