Rootwood Cider - Golden Russet 2023 (750 mL)
Rootwood Cider's Golden Russet is an award winning cider made from Golden Russet apples. Golden Russet apples are known for their rugged appearance, but under their weathered skin lies a crisp, flavorful interior, high in fermentable sugars yet balanced by strong acidity. This cider celebrates the resurgence of the Golden Russet apple which has quickly become a cornerstone of the Rootwood Cider orchard.
Refreshing and crisp, this cider is sparkling and semi-dry, though it may drink a touch sweeter than semi-dry as it's full bodied. Aromatics of fresh applesauce, fruit leather, and dried pineapple. Medium-plus acidity, with very low tannins. Juicy and mouthwatering with fruity flavor notes of fresh apple, mango, cooked pineapple, grapefruit zest, and clove.
Why we love Rootwood Cider: Rootwood Cider makes exceptional ciders from right near the heart of the Apple Capital of the World. Using fruit grown on their family's estate orchard in Lake Chelan, Washington - this fifth generation apple family makes some of Washington State's best ciders. Run by three sisters - Emily, Kate, and Anna Koenig - in a region that is well-known today for its wine but with historical roots in apple-growing, the Koenig sisters are keeping their family's 100+ year apple farming traditions alive through cider - cheers to that!
