Picked in September, this fruit saw both extended whole cluster and skin contact fermentation before pressing in mid-to-late November. The juice was blended with a November cider blend (an earlier cider than our usual February-March pressings) combining equal parts crab and wild apples with a mix of cultivated apples (mostly Liberties).
