Jérôme Forget has been making truly exception ciders and perries since 1995, from nearly 15 hectares in Orne, Normandy, at Yonnière Farm. The estate is planted with over 1,000 apple and pear trees, some over 200 years old! He focuses especially on pears, cultivating many specific and rare varietals, including the Vinot, Pomera, and Plant de Blanc pears that are used for this perry cider. The fruit is all hand-picked from high-branched very old trees which are never sprayed. 

This is a cider that drinks like a wine... like a Champagne even! Exceptionally crisp and dry, with just a seductively subtle nose of fresh pear skin, this is sure to please any wine lover who thinks they don't like cider. Natural sediment is of course present at the bottom of this carefully conditioned bottle, so pour gently. Perfect as a quaffable aperitif, accompaniment to roast pork on the dinner table, or for something light and tasty any time of day.
