Art + Science Wickson Cider 2018
Art + Science Wickson Cider 2018 is a masterclass in tension, highlighting the high-acid, high-sugar Wickson apple. This single-varietal expression, barrel-fermented with native yeast, delivers a bracingly dry profile defined by sharp malic acidity and structured tannins. The 10-month barrel aging introduces subtle wood spice and earthy complexity, while the zero-zero approach allows the wild, floral nuances of the fruit to shine. It presents a sophisticated, rustic elegance, balancing the fruit’s natural intensity with a lean, mineral-driven finish that reflects the unadulterated terroir of the orchard.
Appearance. Pale to medium straw color (SRM 2-4). Brilliant clarity despite the native fermentation. Low carbonation with a quick-fading, white rim of bubbles and no significant lacing.
Aroma. High intensity. Dominant aromas of sharp green apple, lemon zest, and white flowers. Native yeast provides complex secondary notes of damp earth, hay, and a faint farmhouse funk. Substantial barrel character adds whispers of toasted oak and spice.
Taste. Initial impression is bone-dry and vibrantly acidic. Intense flavors of Wickson apple and tart pineapple transition into a complex mid-palate of dried herbs and flinty minerality. Bitterness is negligible, but structural tannins from the apple skins and 10 months in wood provide a firm, drying grip. The finish is exceptionally clean, long, and puckeringly tart.
Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a sharp, crisp mouthfeel. Carbonation is low to moderate. Noticeable astringency from the tannins adds structure. Alcohol presence provides a very light, integrated warmth.
