Commercial Description:
Le nom "Argelette" a toujours été utilisé par les anciens, définissant la nature du terrain composé de petites et de vieilles pierres où les pommiers poussent avec difficulté, donnant de petites pommes au goût sauvage, beaucoup plus concentré. Cette cuvée Prestige est issue d'un triage rigoureux de 19 variétés de pommes soigneusement sélectionnées (40% amères, 40% douces et 20% acidulées). Ce cidre issu d'une technique de macération prolongée ancestrale, détient une trentaine de g/L de sucre résiduel. On obtient ainsi un cidre de grande qualité, plus vineux et gras, plus long en bouche et surtout très parfumé pouvant ainsi s'associer à de grands plats culinaires (crustacés, plats épicés, fromage de Normandie...) Bouteille ventrue bouchée, muselée champenoise, trempée dans une cire fine.

Bottle at Rudolf Mathis. Clody amber coloured with a bubbly white head. Aromas of apples, caramel and yeast. Sweet flavour with notes of syrup, caramel and just enough apple freshness to balance it all. Really easy drinkable. Works great with local cheese from Normandy.

Bottle. Pours a slightly hazy golden color with a small white lace. Has a fruity slightly dry apple aroma. Dry fruity smooth apple flavor with some very soft tart hints. Has a sweetish fruity dry apple finish.

Hazy amber. Soft effervescence. Very sweet and slightly smokey. Toasty with a sweet finish. Very soft. Delicious - those smokey nuances make this a very original and enjoyable cider.

Bottle from Sunset Corners. Pours a splendid dark amber, much darker than expected, appealingly effervescent and leaving splotchy lace. Wondrous resin in the aroma. Any medicinal quality is pleasant, woodsy, naturally musty with a rich core of apples. Nice soft carbonation, a powdery dry, almost tannic sensation on the tongue. Big beautiful bountiful flavors are nuanced and complex. Loads of honey make up the middle. Lingering resinous, mineral, and musty finish is absolutely lovely. Some mace and cinnamon notes create a spicy character especially towards the end. Lots of skin flavors and also the bitterness of apple cores. My kind of cider.

2005 bottle thanks to thecheeseman, shared with angrypirate06 and ilovedarkbeer. Pours with a frothy white head that remains in a ring for the duration of the experience. Very nice hazed golden body underneath. Aroma is everything that a Normandy cider should be: Dry with notes of cheese, band-aids, caramel, bitter crab apples and tons of phenols. This cider is extremely drinkable. Taste is very complex and lingers in your mouth for a minute or two. Smokey notes with band-aid, sweetness, slight medicinal quality, and a caramel, fresh apple sweetness. Lively bubbles, lush mouthfeel.

2005 Bottle with bman1113vr and ilovedarkbeer. Pours a cloudy gold body with a quickly receding white head. Sour aroma, with notes of bleu cheese, apples and barnyard. Taste is primarily bleu cheese and band aid. Watery and fizzy mouthfeel. Just not my favorite type of cider.

Bottle thanks to bman1113vr. Nose is plastic and band aides and stinky cast. Slighty dry but thick. Taste is gamey animal fat and meat. Apple skins and latex. Interesting.
