Eric Bordelet, Poire Authentique

For those who like their cider a bit on the drier side, the pear cuvee from Eric Bordelet is perfect. Lots of fruit but a cleaner finish. Although apple is the traditional drink in the region, as well as the traditional accompaniment to crepes, the pear has a vibrancy we connect with.  20 different varieties of pears are harvested through mid December for this beauty. Very high acidity and cut.
