Cider

Pupitres full of cider and perryOur new Champagne pupitres arrived this morning, and I spent an hour loading them with our 2009 traditional method sparkling perry and cider.

I will riddle these bottles twice a day in an attempt to get the yeast on the crown cap in time for the Big Apple Blossomtime Competition! - a bit of a tall order....  I've got 16 days... normally it takes 24 days... wish me luck!

That is painstaking work! Is the champagne cider ready yet?
