Certified organic. A “field blend” made from apples from Vigmosegaard orchard at Lilleø: Bramley (37%), mixed French cider varieties like Douce Coet, Kermerrien, Binet Rouge (54 %), and a touch of mixed garden apples (9%). The cider varieties, after harvest in 2018 and 12 months of fermentation, were blended with Bramley apples from 2019. After bottling in January 2020, the wine spent 18 months on the lees before disgorgement (Sept ’21). Unfiltered, no SO2 added. This wine has notable but not rough tannic structure, toasty and yeasty notes: it’s very Champagne-like and reminds us of some of the great Norman ciders on the Atlantic coast. There’s also fruit, body, aromatic sweetness: we think it’s one of the most complex and fine wines Decideret has made yet.
