Light gold color. Aromas and flavors of baked apple, hints of pineapple, caramel, and marmalade with a satiny, racy, petillant, dry light body and a tingling, quick finish evoking notes of bubblegum. A funky dry cider with unexpected flavors; pair with rich fatty cheeses.

French-style ciders range in alcohol from 3-10% and are typically full-bodied with lively carbonation and subtle sweetness. This category includes all French-produced and inspired ciders including Normandy-style ciders. These ciders are often available in larger format bottles enclosed with a cork and cage. French-style ciders are more wine-like than most styles, and can be incredibly complex with lively acidity making them a perfect pair for a wide array of cuisines.
