What it tastes like.

Eric Bordelet PoirΓ© Authentique 2021 β€” a perry made from heritage perry pear varieties grown in Eric Bordelet's orchards in CharchignΓ© (Mayenne), Normandy. Bordelet is the reference producer for French cider and perry, having trained as a sommelier and worked at L'Arpege in Paris before returning to the family farm.

Bordelet farms over 25 heritage pear varieties on schist and granite soils, hand-harvests, and ferments slowly with native yeasts. The Authentique is the entry into the perry range β€” lightly sparkling, gently fermented, no added sulphur except a tiny dose at bottling.

Ripe pear, quince, honey, blossom and a delicate citrus lift. The palate is fine-textured, gently off-dry, with persistent fine bubbles, low alcohol and a clean, dry finish. A serious aperitif and a natural match for cured ham, blue cheese and apple-based desserts. 4.5% ABV, 750ml.

Bottle questions

Before you open it.

A few practical answers for storage, delivery, and choosing the right bottle.

How should I store it before opening?

Keep it somewhere cool, dark, and steady. Wine prefers cellar temperature; spirits are happier away from heat and direct sunlight.

How long will it keep once opened?

Wine changes quickly after opening; spirits and liqueurs generally hold longer if capped tightly and kept out of heat. If it is a special bottle, ask before opening and the team can give product-specific guidance.

Can I ask for a similar bottle?

Yes. Contact Caravan with this bottle name and the occasion; the team can suggest a close match, a safer gift, or a step up or down in price.

How is it packed for delivery?

Orders are packed in bottle-safe cartons. If anything arrives damaged or looks wrong, contact the team with your order number and a photo so they can sort the next step.

What about hot weather shipping?

The team avoids making one-size-fits-all promises around heat and carrier timing. For heat-sensitive or cellar bottles, contact Caravan before ordering and they can advise the safest dispatch window.
