About this wine

Thatchers Cider Barn Redwood is a small-batch cider produced at Myrtle Farm in Somerset, blended from a carefully selected range of bittersweet and culinary apples including Katy, Harry Masters, Dabinett and Yarlington Mill. Matured in Thatchers' 175-year-old oak vats and finished with oak chips, it delivers a golden cider of rich intensity and satisfying depth.

On the nose, subtle vanilla and toasted oak lift the fruity apple character. On the palate, it is full-bodied and deeply flavoured with a beautifully rounded finish, a cider that rewards those who appreciate provenance, tradition and genuine craft from one of Somerset's most respected cider makers.

About the producer

Thatchers has made cider at Myrtle Farm in Sandford, North Somerset, since William Thatcher pressed his first apples there in 1904. Four generations have followed, with Martin Thatcher running the business since 1992 and the fifth generation now coming through. The orchards around the farm still supply the fruit, from Katy to the traditional bittersweet Redstreak.
