Cidrerie du Leguer - Poire de Bretagne (750 mL)
Cidrerie du Leguer's Poire de Bretagne is a French Perry made with a blend of 70% plan de blanc pears, and 30% of an unknown perry pear variety growing next to it - likely a seedling of the plan de blanc. Cédric's Poiré shows a beautiful light lemon color. Refreshing, bright and full of energy with a rustic carbonation with beautiful fruit and an enticing waxy texture. The fruit is from two perry pear trees right down the road from Cédric's orchard. Off-dry.
From Cedric: "Enjoy as an aperitif or with Grandma's pie. Nice tension, flowery (Elder flower), fruity, fresh, round."
About Cidrerie du Leguer: From the Bretagne (Brittany) region of France, Cedric and his wife Kate are a relatively young cider making duo. They began making cider after discovering a somewhat abandoned cider farm near Lannion in Northwestern France. Their first commercially released vintage was in 2016. Their orchards are all managed organically, with little more than pruning the trees and mowing the grass done to maintain them. They grow a variety of native French cider apple varieties, including Marie Menard, Jeanne Renard, Fréquin Rouge, Belle fille de la Manche, Kermerrien, Freilach’, Peau de Chien, Bedan, Douce Coët Ligné, Locart vert, Petit Jaune, Rouget de Dol, and more. All apples are harvested from the ground and then allowed to mature in wood crates before pressing. 100% native fermentation with no additions. Their ciders are all keeved for a natural filtration and then bottle conditioned. Common amongst Breton cider, theirs all range from Dry, to Extra Dry. Each cuvée is blended by Cedric to his preference of taste.
