Devon Rosé Cider (ABV 3.4%, 500ml bottles RRP £2.50 from www.sandfordorchards.co.uk)
Devon Rosé is an elegantly clean and vibrantly fresh rosé cider, bursting with the fruitiness of Pinot Noir red wine grapes.
It's a delicious, medium sweet cider made from Browns, Katja and Jane apple varieties which are fermented with grape skins to give the cider a fabulous depth of flavour and a beautiful natural blush colouring.
Its relatively low alcohol content means it's a light and refreshing, summery drink, perfect for lunchtime tipples, picnics and BBQs.
Katja Rosé (ABV 8%, 750ml bottles RRP £11.00 from www.sandfordorchards.co.uk)
Katja Rosé is a sumptuous sparkling skin-contact rosé cider, produced using the Martinotti method. Lovingly crafted in Devon from locally grown Katja dessert apples, the juice is fermented with Rondo grapes from a nearby vineyard.
This bestows wine notes and an unmistakable rosé finish. It is a fresh and fruity cider which tastes of sun ripened cherries and peaches, with hints of apple blossom and candyfloss, balanced with tannins from the wineskins. It is the perfect all-British alternative to a pink bubbly.
