Dwinell "Russet" 2023 Wild-Fermented Dry Cider

16oz can

7.3% abv

A wild-fermented heirloom cider made from a blend of Winesap, Jonathan, and Roxbury Russet apples.

Our ciders are an orchard-based product that we make once a year.

Fermentation occurs spontaneously, without the use of lab-grown yeast or addition of sulfites. These wild ciders ferment for upwards of 100 days in stainless steel tanks at refrigeration temperatures. The cold, repressed fermentation enables us to retain and, in turn, showcase the delicate aromatic structure of each blend. This slowed ferment also allows for the natural sedimentation of pectin to occur without the use of lab-derived clarifying agents or application of mechanical filters.

Each cider is then packaged prior to the end of fermentation, resulting in a fine, natural carbonation to develop in package - a traditional method commonly known as pétillant natural or “pét-nat.”
