Antoine Marois - La Roche Cidre de Normandie (750 mL)

Antoine Marois - La Roche Cidre de Normandie (750 mL)

La Roche (The Rock) is a cider from Antoine Marois from the heart of the Pays d'Auge in Normandy, France. La Roche is a Brut Cidre de Normandie - a dry French cider made in the traditional methods common to the region. Made with a blend of traditional French cider apples from a south facing orchard on their estate. This cider is dry, rich, and with a pleasant body to support a tannic bitter quality. Tasting notes include rich apple and hints of spice and orchard floor. 

About Antoine Marois: Nestled on top of a hill, the Domaine overlooks the village of Cambremer located in the heart of the Pays d'Auge, in Normandy. The Estate extends over 18 hectares (~45 acres) of natural meadows including 7.5 hectares of high-stem orchard. They grow many of the most beloved cider apple varieties form this region of France, including: Fréquin Rouge, Mettais, Saint Aubin, Binet Rouge, Domaine, Rambeau, and more. The orchards are managed organically. True to French tradition, the grass on the orchard is maintained by cows during the growing season before they are removed prior to harvest. All of the apples are hand harvested, and sorted before pressing. Their cider blends are based on specific plots within the orchard - so each cuvée represents a true expression of place & terroir. The work in the cellar is deliberately non-interventionist, but under constant attention. Fermentation via indigenous yeast, and then managed in the traditional French cidre style of keeving, involving multiple rackings during fermentation. Bottle conditioned naturally. Each vintage of these ciders will age exceptionally well and is crafted with intention of pairing well with a wide range of foods.

If you're looking for a full case of this or any other cider, please e-mail us and we'll setup a special order for you. We can usually get more of any cider we feature in our shop, and offer a discount on full-case special orders. Most bottled ciders come in 12-bottle cases, and canned ciders come in 24-can cases. Some rare or limited ciders may not be eligible for a case order discount, but we can still get you a full case.

We ship cider in boxes that safely hold 4-bottles, 6-bottles, or 12-bottles. Order in one of those quantities (or multiples of those quantities) to maximize your shipping value. For example, if you order 2-3 ciders, there will be room left in the box and it won't meaningfully change the shipping costs to fill the box.

We do have 1-bottle boxes, but in most all instances it will cost the same to ship you a full 4-bottle box.

Shipping to a business address will usually save you a few bucks!

Shipping cost estimates:

  • Pacific Northwest/West Coast: Shipping anywhere in the Pacific Northwest or West Coast is relatively inexpensive. Almost all box sizes cost $16-21 to ship. Same is true for most destinations in the Mountain Time Zone.
  • Central Standard Time Zone / Midwest: A 4-bottle or 6-bottle box will usually cost $18-24 to ship. A 12-bottle box will usually cost $22-30 to ship. Variance depends on weight and how far from a FedEx/UPS shipping center your delivery address is.
  • East Coast: A 4-bottle or 6-bottle box will usually cost $20-25 to ship. A 12-bottle box will usually cost $25-35 to ship. Variance depends on weight and how far from a FedEx/UPS shipping center your delivery address is.

Important Shipping Information:

  • We are able to ship cider to most, but not all, states.
  • Legally, someone 21+ must be present at the time of delivery to sign for the cider. We cannot ship to PO Boxes or AFO/FPO addresses.
  • Shipping prices vary by weight and destination. How far you are from Seattle (where we ship from), and remote vs. central your shipping destination is, and how heavy your box is will make shipping vary.
  • The bigger the box, the less you pay in shipping on a per-bottle basis. We ship in 1, 4, 6, and 12 bottle boxes - order in those quantities for the best shipping value. The size of the box matters as much as the weight, so don't leave empty slots in your bottle box! Shipping 1-2 bottles will cost the same as shipping 4-6 bottles in most cases. Shipping a 12-bottle box is usually only $3-5 more than shipping a 4-6 bottle box.
  • Re-delivery and returns are the responsibility of the customer.
  • We don't recommend shipping during periods of extreme weather. If your area has weather of concern, please contact us and we can hold your order.
