Enjoy lightly chilled. Pair with cheeses, salads, seafood and more.Fresh Gravenstein apples straight from the orchards craft this varietal cider, with notes of citrus, jasmine, spice, melon and bay leaf. Imagine biting into your first summer apple, a tree-ripened Gravenstein from our sustainable family orchard.
Medium-dry. Balanced. Crisp, smooth and refreshing. Lightly sparkling, with medium body and a medium clean fresh finish.
The Gravenstein apple is the favorite summer apple—juicy with the perfect balance of tanginess and sweet, and all out flavor. Great for pies, juice, and sauce. Called "Summer in a Glass" Gowan's Gravenstein cider is the perfect expression of this apple, like taking a bite right from the tree.
