2017 Lesuffleur La Folletière Cider

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