Information
An outlier in the world of iDealwine, Eric Bordelet's domain was founded in 1992. After learning from some of the biggest names in gastronomy, this former sommelier took the chance to take over his family's domain. He thus became the owner of twenty hectares of orchards, where he grows around thirty varieties of apples and pears organically, producing unique cider and perry. The notion of terroir matters to this producer, and the drinks he makes are parcel-focused, with cuvées like Argelette and Granit named after the terroirs where they were cultivated. At the domain, harvests are selective and carried out by hand, taking place between September and December due to the large number of varieties. The cider and perry are fermented in vats before bottling with residual sugar. An admirable craft resulting in a product loved by all kinds of enthusiasts, including the iDealwine team!
Eric Bordelet, a trained sommelier (he studied under the legendary Dutournier and Passard!), took up the reins of the 19-hectare Normandy family domain in 1992. The orchard, which is located near Charchigné in Hauteville, is cultivated using organic and biodynamic methods. This domain's cider production is exceptional, and truly haute couture. Its Poiré Authentique is a fresh, tart demi-sec perry with very fine bubbles. Its freshness makes it a perfect drink for serving as an apéritif, but it can also be paired with goat's cheese.
