750ml bottle of Fowey Valley Sparkling Vintage cider in champagne bottle

Sparkling Vintage Cider 750ml

£16.75Price

Our Sparkling Vintage Cider is handcrafted at our cidery in Lostwithiel, a beautifully idyllic and historical town in Cornwall. At Fowey Valley, we only use fresh apples from our own orchard and others close by, and absolutely nothing else.

 

This award-winning Sparkling Vintage Cider is made with a high proportion of dessert apples in the mix to give it that delicious ‘méthode traditionelle’ taste.

 

The apples are pressed, then fermented twice: first in the barrel for a year; then a second year’s fermentation in the bottle. The cider is then disgorged in the champagne style and aged further before release.  It is the secondary fermentation that gives our cider its wonderful bubbly effervescence; a method invented in the West Country for fine cider making around 1600 - well before it was used in France for Champagne.

 

Our Sparkling Vintage Cider won silver at the 2015 British Cider championships and a 2016 Gold Taste of the West award.

 

Presented in a 750ml champagne bottle with an ABV of 7.5%.

 

Expected Delivery: Delivered within 1-2 working days.
