Domaine Jean-Yves Peron Poire de la Combe dIre NV

Poir de la Combe d’Ire is a sparkling cuve from Jean-Yves Pron made from pears. Organic, biodynamic and natural, this perry is the winemaker’s only grape-free cuve.

A dozen varieties of old pears, growing in the Savoyard orchards, are the basis of this perry from Combe d’Ire, a clay-limestone area classified as a biological reserve and protected area near Chevaline.

Completely dry (zero dosage), beautiful golden color with a lovely fine note of sweetness in the background, coexisting with a symphony of bitterness, fruitiness and salinity. A great richness of taste, the pear sublimated in a sparkling beverage. Intensely fresh finish. This aged perry is at its best after five years of aging.

The pears are grated then pressed. The perry is aged for three years in 350-litre barrels.
