Snow Capped Cider - Bespoke Red-Flesh Cider (750 mL)
Snow Capped Cider - Bespoke Red-Flesh Cider (750 mL)
Snow Capped Cider's Bespoke is an award winning Rosé cider made with a trio of beloved red-fleshed cider apple varieties. A blend of Airlie Red, Redfield, and Pink Lady apples - varieties that when cut open or bit into reveal a bright red flesh that gives this cider it's blush color.
All of the apples in this cider were grown on Snow Capped Cider's high elevation orchard on Colorado's Western Slope. The family has been growing apples, peaches, and other fruit on this estate orchard since 1912 - but these red flesh apple varieties were only planted about 10 years ago. This batch of Bespoke is the first year the trees have produced enough fruit to make this lovely cider.
Semi-dry with notes of strawberry, bramble berry and a tart finish
We were lucky to get our hands on a couple cases of this gem, which is otherwise exclusively available to Snow Capped's cider club or when visiting their tasting room.
About Snow Capped Cider: Kari Williams' family has owned the orchards she now manages for more than 5 generations - though she's the first to use the apples for cider. Snow Capped Cider is crafted at an impressive elevation of 6,130 feet, making it one of the highest-elevation orchards and cideries in the world. Nestled at the base of the Grand Mesa - the largest flat-topped mountain in the world - on Colorado’s Western Slope. Their unique terroir benefits from high altitude, warm days, cool nights, and gravity-fed mountain water - which impacts the fruit in such a way that makes for excellent ciders. Their cider apples are grown exclusively in Colorado, adhering to traditional English and French orchard practices. Committed to sustainability, they craft high-quality ciders using sustainable farming practices, making Snow Capped Cider a zero-waste company.
Snow Capped has been on an impressive run the last few years at various Cider competitions, winning several awards for many of their recent releases.
