Maison Hérout Grande Cuvée Extra Brut Cidre Cotentin 2020 750ml

Hérout Grande Cuvée Extra Brut 2020 is an organic Cotentin AOP cider from Maison Hérout in Auvers, Normandy, at 5.5% ABV.

The family house has made cider since 1946, from 100% pure juice that is never pasteurized.

Bubbles form naturally in the bottle using the ancestral method, with no added gas.

The 2020 is golden, with aromas of apple tarte tatin and ripe fruit, and its extra-brut style makes it one of the driest ciders from Normandy.

More than 25 apple varieties, mostly bittersweet, grow in the Hérout orchard.
