Terra Madre Pommes Classique

Published: 01 Jun 09
 

Apple fizz

Everybody's talking up Terra Madre Pommes Classique, an Elgin MCC cider, of which the 2008 vintage produced 6 000 bottles. Former Jozi chef Nicole Precoudis (of Cilantro and Icon restaurant) and business partner Ian Downie take a handcrafted approach.

 

The delicious, dry drink bottle-fermented from a few Elgin apple varieties has only 9% alcohol. Tel 082 906 7600.

" Today was our first encounter with Terra Madre, Elgin Cider. My wife just loved it, as it reminded her of a particular German variety that she used to enjoy.
We are keen to find out about purchasing from source and perhaps even visiting the farm to add to the taste. "
