2017 Lesuffleur La Folletière Cider

La Folletière Cider is produced by Domaine Lesuffleur from a young orchard of low-branch, high-density trees in Normandy planted on flint and clay over chalk soils. The cider is crafted from over 12 heritage apple varieties, blended at approximately 40% bittersweet, 35% bitter, and 25% sharp apples to achieve balance between sweetness, acidity, and tannin. Fermented using indigenous yeasts and the traditional méthode ancestrale with keeving, it undergoes extended bottle aging on fine lees for up to 30 months, resulting in a complex, rustic cider with notable tannin structure and power.
