Domaine Lesuffleur - La Folletière Cidre de Normandie 2019 (750 mL)
La Folletière Cidre de Normandie is made with a blend of more than 15 cider apple varieties grown on the Lesuffleur family's estate orchard. Approximately 40% bittersweet apples (including Binet Rouge and Bidquet), 25% bitter apples (mostly Mettais and Frequin Rouge), and 25% sharp apples (Rambeau, Rene Martin, etc.) for a balance of tannins, acidity, and fruit qualities. The juice is spontaneously fermented using indigenous yeast and using traditional keeving methods (long, slow fermentations with 3-4 rackings and light filtration). Finished in the ancestral method, with the cider aging on lees in the bottle for 3 or more years before disgorging. The vintage on the bottle (2019) refers to the harvest season of the fruit. This 2019 vintage is rare and relatively limited. We also have the 2018 vintage, which was imported to the U.S. in more significant volume and probably the vintage you've tried stateside. Both vintages are excellent! Certified Organic | from the Pays d’Auge appellati
