Brut Cider
7% vol.
For Melchiori Renetta craft apple cider production, we select only Renetta Canada apples, which are typical from Val di Non but originally derive from France. They are yellow and a bit rusty, tannic, slightly acidulous but with a good sugar content.
The ancestral method consists in bottle fermentation without disgorging. Before consumption, this cider should age on lees for 8 months. The lees at the bottom contribute to make it a lively product, that evolves over time.
Renetta is natural and bold.
