Domaine Eric Bordelet - Poiré - Authentique

Wine:

The Poiré Authentique cider is of exceptional delicacy, with fine and regular effervescence. It stands in a class of its own. The nose is exceptionally perfect, featuring notes of fully ripe pear with inherent sweetness, complemented by pastry aromas, biscuits, and mixed yellow fruits that are absolutely irresistible. The palate offers a fresh and drier juice than expected, giving the impression of biting into a fresh pear, with a fruit kernel aspect that adds depth to the overall experience. Far from any imitation in its category, this pear cider elevates the fruit to its highest level of excellence. It pairs wonderfully with a pear tart or Roquefort cheese on toast with dried fruits.
