Pear varieties used: Plants de Blanc, Fosset, Poire de Cloche, Mordouet. Poiré is produced according to traditional methods.
Attractive straw-yellow colour, not very persistent bubbles. Fruity aroma (warm pear) and thirst-quenching taste. Poiré should be drunk chilled (between 8 and 10 °C), preferably in 'balloon' or 'tulip' glasses.
Pairing: Poiré that has retained all its sweetness while still being thirst-quenching is usually drunk:
as an aperitif or kir normand,
as an accompaniment to fruit desserts such as apple pie, preferably with low-acid fruit.
