This sparkling Methode Traditionnelle cider from Dragon's Head Cider is made from primarily Newtown Pippin apples with a bit of Golden Russet apples. Finished using the labor intensive Méthode Traditionnelle process in which the cider undergoes secondary fermentation in the bottle, creating tiny bubbles and spent yeast (lees) that are collected in the neck of the bottle and disgorged. Sparkling and perfect for celebratory cheers! This cider is dry, with strong acid and low tannins. Full flavor with some tart citrus (lemon juice and lemon peel notes), ripe apple skins, and a soft white-grape wine-like presence. 

This cider was featured in the Spring release (April 2024) and was previously reserved for club members. Join now to get this delicious cider along with a mix of other ciders highlighting various fermentation and conditioning methods.
