Val de Rance Doux Cider
A cider for those who avoid harshness and appreciate natural fruit sweetness. Val de Rance from Brittany presses traditional apple varieties – including Bendan and Judor – and stops fermentation early to retain most of the natural fruit sugar.
In the glass, Cidre Doux displays a clear golden yellow color. On the palate, it offers soft caramel notes, ripe apple fruit, and a well-rounded, never cloying sweetness – its low alcohol content makes it light and perfect for everyday enjoyment. Serve well chilled at 6–8 °C.
Perfect with galettes bretonnes, crêpes with butter caramel or mild goat cheese. Also an uncompromising aperitif.

Quick answers
How sweet is the Val de Rance Cidre Doux really?
Significantly sweeter than a Cidre Brut, but not heavy or sticky. Val de Rance stops the fermentation early, so a lot of natural fruit sugar is preserved — the result is soft apple fruit with a caramel note that still feels fresh.
At what temperature should I serve the Cidre Doux?
Best served well chilled at 6–8 °C — this is when the freshness and fruit are best showcased. If served too warm, the sweetness quickly feels flat.
What does Cidre Doux pair well with at the table?
Classically with galettes bretonnes and crêpes, but also with mild goat cheese, quiche, or light poultry. The round sweetness balances salty and buttery flavors well — it also works as an uncomplicated aperitif.
How much alcohol does the Cidre Doux have?
Only 2% ABV — this makes it one of the lightest ciders in our range and easy to drink during the day or as an accompaniment over several courses.
How long does an opened bottle last?
After opening, store in the refrigerator and drink within 1–2 days. The carbonation noticeably decreases after that, and the freshness is lost.
Is the Cidre Doux also suitable for people who do not like wine or beer?
Yes — the low alcohol content and natural fruit sweetness make it an accessible alternative, especially for those who avoid sharpness or bitterness. The 750 ml bottle is great for sharing.
The Producer
Val de Rance is the brand of the cooperative Les Celliers Associés, which was founded in 1953 by twelve apple farmers in the Rance Valley of Brittany – with the goal of joining forces and creating a real Breton cider.
Today, the cidery in Pleudihen-sur-Rance is one of the most important cider producers in France and is considered the most awarded cidery at the Concours Général Agricole in Paris.
What distinguishes the cooperative is its consistent signature: more than 99% pure apple juice, no additives, carefully selected old Breton apple varieties – monitored by Maître de Chai Alain Le Page from the first pressing to bottling. No wonder Val de Rance is at home in over 70 countries and countless Breton crêperies today.
