Ross-on-Wye Bisquet S.V. Oak Cask Cider 500ml 7%
For more than one hundred years, British orchardists have been growing this French variety of apple, which we knew as 'Michelin.' But now the truth is out! DNA fingerprinting reveals that this apple is in fact the variety 'Bisquet'! And 'Michelin' is a different, distinct variety. How curious! This apple is a classic, delightful bittersweet. Fresh hay and lemon notes with rich, smooth tannins. One of our favourites.

Crisp apple backbone
Subtle oak cask influences
Hints of caramel and toasted apple
Jagged, dry finish with complex apple character

Mature cheeses
Charcuterie boards

Autumnal game dishes
