Le Père Jules Apple Cider Brut hails from the heart of Normandy, France, a region long revered for its cider-making heritage. Crafted with no fewer than twenty different apple varieties, this brut expression achieves a delicate balance of sweet, bitter, and tart fruit notes. The natural diversity of the apples imparts depth and complexity, making it a true representation of its terroir.
Undergoing a slow, traditional fermentation and light filtration, this cider is bottled with minimal intervention to allow for a natural sparkle to develop in-bottle. The result is a finely effervescent cider with clean structure, vibrant acidity, and a crisp finish. Expect aromas of orchard fruit and gentle floral undertones, followed by a refreshing burst of ripe apple, subtle earthiness, and a slight tannic grip.
At 5% ABV, it’s light, aromatic, and food-friendly. Best served well-chilled, Le Père Jules Apple Cider Brut pairs beautifully with everything from charcuterie and roast poultry to soft cheeses and seafood. Ideal for sipping throughout a leisurely meal or as a crisp aperitif to start the evening.
