  2. Eric Bordelet Sydre Brut Tendre Apple Cider NV
    Eric Bordelet Sydre Brut Tendre Apple Cider NV
    The biodynamic orchards are comprised of trees upto 50+ years old containing 40-50 varieties of heirloom apples. The hand-harvested fruit is dehydrated for 4-5 weeks and simply ground and pressed then settled for clarification before fermenting naturally, originating in tank and finishing in bottle. Bubbles develop within two weeks of bottling. It has lovely aromatics of graham and baked apple, followed by elegant bubbles and an off-dry profile on the palate.

  4. Eric Bordelet Mistelle de Poires a Poire 2010 500ml
    Eric Bordelet Mistelle de Poires a Poire 2010 500ml
    Made from partially fermented pear juice, pear calvados is added to halt fermentation and fortify the wine. It has been aged in barrel for 10 years.  This liquid phenomenon has flavours of honey and hazelnuts centred around an electric core of perfectly ripe pears. From barrel aging, it has picked up savoury rancio notes of fresh leather and spice. It's an incredible dessert wine with a superb umami twist on the finish. It's very special and one of a kind.

  5. Eric Bordelet Poire Granit Pear Cider 2021 750ml
    Eric Bordelet Poire Granit Pear Cider 2021 750ml
    Known more as a cutting-edge cider maker, Eric Bordelet was a top sommelier at Arpege in Paris, before returning home to Normandy in 1992 to take over the family business. He biodynamically grows more than 20 apple varieties and 15 pear varieties. JASON WILSON, Vinous

    Eric Bordelet approaches Cider-making with the same intensity as a passionate oenologist brings to winemaking. Bordelet worked as sommelier in the leading 3 star Parisian restaurant, ‘Arpege’ where he became deeply familiar with the top winemakers and wineries of France. In 1992 he took over the tiny patch of family farmed orchards in Charchigné, in the heart of Normandy’s premium Cider producing area. Since then he has set about rescuing the ancient ‘heirloom’ varieties of pears and apples that produce tiny quantities and amazing flavour.

    Produced from pear trees estimated to be about 300 years old. Poiré Granit has 25-80 grams of sugar per liter, yet it doesn't taste particularly sweet.  This is due to the tannin and acidity, which Bordelet says is twice as high as the apple! Stunning as aperitif or with cheese or desserts. With just 4% alc/vol this can be enjoyed any time. Cider simply doesn't get better than this !!
