A hint of bitterness

This is another good that is on sale in Sainsbury’s at the moment.

Duché de Longueville Cidre de récoltant Normany varietal cider “Gros Oeillet” 2005, 5%

The nose has a very over-ripe, almost mouldy, apple character; this is not a bad thing, though, the nose is very pleasing. It is reasonably sparkling, with a long finish of rich apple flavours. This is really good dry cider.
