Description
Terroirs – Granitic and loamy soil.
This bittersweet apple orchard faces south on a moderately deep granite soil.
Arboriculture – The high tree orchards are less dense with grass strips, which promotes diversity. There are no added pesticides or insecticides in order to preserve the environment. We are committed to keeping in compliance with organic production.
Cidrification
The apples were manually harvested from September to December. The fruits were stored in bags under shelter for better ripeness
The fermentation takes place in tanks and then blended with natural yeasts in oak barrels.
The cider is bottled in May, with natural bubble formation and no added sulfur non-carbonated and non-pasteurized.
A second fermentation occurs in the bottle. Wild yeasts are necessary to make the natural foam, it can make some turbidity.
Dry Cider – Nérios is powerful, tannic and surprises with its alcohol content of 8°. A copper color, fine bubbles, and slight liquorice, and apple fruit flavour on the palate with a hint of bitterness and a long finish.
