Skin Contact Cider

A cider made in collaboration with our friends at Artistraw cider and Whinyard Rocks. A skin contact cider combines grape skins into the natural fermentation of the apples. These grapes then add a little extra magic in the form of colour, flavour and tannin to produce something uniquely delicious!

This skin contact cider is made from handpicked foxwelp apples from unsprayed traditional standard orchards and Rondo grapes grown at Whinyard Rocks a low intervention vineyard in the Radnor valley and pressed at Black Mountain winery.

The Bright foxwelp acidity is enveloped in the bold fruit flavours of Rondo grape skins and brings to mind a nose reminiscent of a summer pudding laden with juicy blackcurrents. Sharp and precise, pairs excellently with a fatty piece of pork belly or a sumptous cheese cake.
