Poiré is a traditional French drink made in Normandy by fermenting pear must.
It is made from several pear varieties such as Plant de Blanc, Muscadet, Avenelle and Poire de Grise. Quickly pressed right after picking. The pear must ferments naturally for 5 to 8 weeks. Poiré is bottled in the middle of the fermentation process. Fermentation then continues inside the bottle: sugar is converted to alcohol with natural production of carbonation with resulting bubbles.

Bottle shared. Slight hazy straw colored. Crisp pear, dry mineral, soft funk, gooseberries. Light sweet, a bit more sour and a soft bitter touch. Medium bodied with quite some carbonation.
