Wine characteristics
\nDer Pyrrhus hebt seine Signatur als Gr\u00f6\u00dfter Grand Cru aus dem Calvados-Gebiet hervor, indem er von drei \u201cverborgenen\u201d \u00c4pfelsorten stammt, welche von uralten B\u00e4umen in den Plantagen von La-Folleti\u00e8re und Friardel gepfl\u00fcckt werden. Benoit Lesuffleur verleiht dem Cidre eine pers\u00f6nliche Note, indem er ein Drittel des bitteren Lieblingsapfels seines Gro\u00dfvaters, ein Drittel des sauren Lieblingsapfels seines Vaters und ein Drittel seines eigenen bevorzugten bitters\u00fc\u00dfen Apfels verwendet. Die Fr\u00fcchte, die sorgf\u00e4ltig von Hand gesammelt und ausgew\u00e4hlt wurden, unterzogen sich anschlie\u00dfend einer nat\u00fcrlichen G\u00e4rung. Der Cidre wurde schlie\u00dflich am 15. Januar 2019 abgef\u00fcllt und am 6. Dezember 2021 degorgiert.<\/p>\n
Colour scheme
\nA strong amber hue enlivened by a lively mousseux accentuates the colourfulness of the Pyrrhus.<\/p>\n
Bouquet
\nPyrrhus exudes an irresistible uniqueness. Its aromatic finesse resembles a bouquet of the best apple and quince varieties, including their skins. It is joined by tones of flint, malt, lambic and hops as well as nuances of oranges and their zests, refined by a hint of almonds.<\/p>\n
Taste
\nOn the palate, the Pyrrhus turns out to be the finest silk, elegant and sensual at the same time, underpinned by subtle tannins. The harmonious embedding of acidity in a ripe fruit sweetness reveals a perfect balance between sweetness, astringency and acidity. Its price reflects its outstanding quality in terms of depth, complexity, sensuality and persistence, making it an incomparable representative of cider wines.<\/p>\n
Food recommendations
\nDuck breast glazed in port wine and served with pepper sauce, together with a roasted apple, makes the Pyrrhus the perfect accompaniment. It is also excellent with black pudding, onions and apples wrapped in crispy puff pastry. Alternatively, it is an excellent accompaniment to scallops on a bed of butternut cider puree, garnished with an apple and fennel salad.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
