A sparkling pear cider straight from Normandy, France. Eric Bordelet uses his family pear orchards, estimated to be about 300-years-old, to produce this cuve. Very pretty with floral pear aromas, a hint of sweetness, and fresh acidity.

BIODYNAMIC - Certified

VITICULTURE - Hand harvested and farmed biodynamically

VINIFICATION - fruit is dehydrated for 4-5 weeks and simply ground and pressed then settled for clarification before fermenting naturally

AGING - One continuous fermentation originating in tank and finishing in bottle. Bubbles develop within two weeks of bottling. The fruit is never chaptalized, but a small amount of residual sugar remains. RS = 25-30 g/l

NOTES - Done in a traditionally off-dry, sparkling style that works brilliantly with goat cheese. Very expressive aromatics, gentle mousse
