Description

We make Abel Méthode Cider in each vintage in small quantities from freshly harvested apples and pears.  We hand-pick tree ripened fruit, crush it, then ferment until dry.

Our cider is unfined and unfiltered. This basically means we allow our cider to naturally clarify via gravity, this gentle process helps preserve the natural fruit characteristics.

Our cider is fermented in bottle, like champagne.  This natural carbonation gives a finer bubble which retains the aromas and flavours.  Bottle fermentation adds complexity and texture, as well as giving cloudiness from the yeast sediment that remains.  

 

--------THE PRODUCER--------

Abel

We grew up eating the intensely flavoured and crisp apples for which New Zealand is world renowned.  For the past 10 years Mark has been experimenting in our backyard with small batch cider making, trialing and perfecting what has become Abel Méthode Cider.
