Carola Wine + Cider - Sea Spray (750 mL)
Carola Wine + Cider's Sea Spray is a bone-dry, sparkling, natural cider made from hand picked apples sourced from 'forgotten' trees on the Oregon Coast. This flagship cider from Carola is highly drinkable and delicious.
The apples sourced for Sea Spray are harvested from trees throughout Tillamook Country on the Oregon Coast. Cider maker David has spent years caring for trees that were previously abandoned or neglected, including trees on public land and from orchards on old farms in the area. Most of the apples in this blend are early season apples, but additional juice is often added throughout the growing season. Fermented naturally with wild yeast in stainless steel tanks.
Nothing added (no added sulfites) and nothing removed during fermentation - the only ingredients are apples + time. After fermented dry and with some time to age on the fine lees, the cider is bottled with a small amount of the next season's apple juice to naturally carbonate the cider in-bottle, resulting in a slight cloudiness and light sparkle.

About Carola Wine + Cider: David Hendrickson makes a range of delicious natural cider in a small barn on the banks of the Nehalem River in on Oregon's North Coast. The apples and fruit used for his fermentations are more 'found' than 'farmed,' sourced from numerous forgotten trees, large and small, old and young, on both sides of the Oregon Coast Range. David cares for and harvests from several apple trees throughout his community - including trees still thriving from century old orchards on farms in the area. Each of his cider are natural naturally fermented (wild yeast), rolling throughout the harvest season without any additions or adjustments in the cellar (zero / zero, nothing added and nothing removed during the cider making). His ciders are bottle conditioned by adding a bit of fresh juice at bottling for a natural sparkle, and to best preserve the spirit of diverse and wild fruit and the unique place where it grows. We find that each of his ciders has a soft salinity, unique to the coastal terroir, and that makes for delightful food pairings with seafood and fresh seasonal fare. More about Carola Wine & Cider.
