Cidre Dupont
Bobbing for apples, grown-up style
BY GENEVIEVE RAJEWSKI
Previous Columns

Open a bottle of Cidre Dupont, and the Champagne-bottle "pop!" you’ll hear as you release the cork creates a festive air before you even pour a glass. However, a sip of Cidre Dupont tastes more like biting into a crisp apple, fresh off the branch, than it does like bubbly. Call it bobbing for apples for grown-ups.

Made in Calvados, France, this unfiltered cider is very dry and, thus, a far cry from the super-sweet nonalcoholic versions made locally and draft-style hard ciders such as Magners, Strongbow, and Cider Jack. Although this area of Normandy is well known for its apple brandies, you’ll find Cidre Dupont equally compatible with the region’s specialty cheeses, including Camembert, Pont-l’Evèque, and Livarot. Should take-out be more your thing, try using this light and refreshing drink to wash down spicy dishes such as General Tsao’s chicken and moo shu pork.
