View: Sort results:
Bordelet's entire production of fruit is hand-picked in wooden cases. The apples are then left in a drafty place to dehydrate for three to five weeks after which time, the fruit is pressed. (The exception to this is the apples destined for the cuvee Argelette which are crushed and left to macerate on their skins for more extraction.) At this point, the alcoholic fermentation takes off, during which time the must is racked several times, and very lightly filtered. The ciders are then bottled during this fermentation with varying amounts of residual sugar depending on the cuvée. The fruit is never chaptalized! The entire production of mousse in the bottle is derived from the primary fermentation and the delicate bottling process.
This is true pear cider with just a hint of residual sugar. We could get out the wine terms for this, but tasting is believing. Very classy stuff with the texture and taste of ripe pears. Good acidity and length make this an excellent food match, especially with cheese. more
