Bordelet Poire Authentique Perry

Poiré Authentique – Pear cider made from 50 year old trees. Made in a traditionally off-dry, sparkling style that works brilliantly with goat cheese. 

After a long, respected career as Chef Sommelier at michelin-starred restaurant l’Arpege in Paris, Eric Bordelet returned to his family’s windswept orchards in Normandy to embark on a new adventure as a cider producer. Like great wine, great cider is a reflection of the underlying terroir of the orchards, the quality and the variety of the fruit trees planted, the yields in the orchard and, of course, the age of the trees. Much of Bordelet’s production is from pre-French revolution apple and pear orchards of “heirloom” varieties planted in granite and schiste soils.
