Cameron Winery - Baird Sidra 2022 (750 mL)
2022 Vintage Baird Sidra from Cameron Winery in Dundee, Oregon (Willamette Valley)
Sidra is a traditional-style hard cider that originates from the Asturias region of Spain. The apples for Cameron Winery's Baird Sidra come from Baird Family Orchard in Dayton, Oregon. The apples used in this cider are a complex assortment of Asturian varieties such as Coloradona, Piel de Sapa, Repanaldo do Liebana, and Solarina; plus a few other popular cider apple varieties such as Kingston Black, Golden Russet, and Dabinett.
The cider is finished in neutral Pinot noir barrels in order to impart flavors that resemble a true dry Asturian sidra. Its aromas are brilliant apple blossom and rose petal, which pop out of the glass a bit courtesy of the lively sparkling cider. On the pallet, it's a dry cider with bold (medium-plus) tannins and high acidity. Flavor notes of green apple, citrusy lemon & lime zest, honeycomb, and some yeast driven phenolics. It has a very pleasantly long finish with notes of black tea and a slight salinity.
The Drosophila on the label, a nod to our constant companions during fermentation, was drawn by John’s mom Eugenia in 1936 when she was a scientific illustrator for Alfred Sturtevant in the genetics department at Cal Tech.
