Flux 2021

A blend highlighting varieties Baldwin and Dabinett, with an eye on expressing the soft and opulent side of Dabinett’s tannins and less on their astringency. This marriage results in a bold, sapid cider that leans into the citrus-floral realm, with spice and herb accents and an incredibly long finish. It’s just learning to sing right now and is one to watch for the coming years.
