From the heart of Normandy's famed Pays d'Auge region comes this exceptional pear cider, or Poiré, crafted by a family with over a century of history. Le Père Jules is a fourth-generation estate that embodies the spirit of traditional French cider making. This Poiré is a pure reflection of its pristine environment, made exclusively from organic, estate-grown pears harvested from trees that are up to 100 years old. The family follows time-honored organic principles, even allowing a herd of cows to roam the orchards to provide natural fertilizer.
The production process is a testament to patience and craft. After hand-harvesting, the pears undergo a natural fermentation using only the wild yeasts present on the fruit. The cider's delicate sparkle is achieved through a second fermentation in the bottle, a method known as "prise de mousse." It is never pasteurized, resulting in a vibrant, living beverage full of finesse. This Poiré is bright and wonderfully fresh, with clean, zesty aromas of pure pear and delicate white flowers. It is an elegant and refreshing expression of the Normandy countryside, perfect for any occasion.
