| Bordelet Poire Authentique |
A former sommelier at a 3 star restaurant places
his passion for wine into his production of first class Normandy cider. Old trees, low yields and
terroir mean as much to cider as they do to wine. Champagne like and dry, the pear aromas are
subtly balanced by citrus and white flowers that linger long into the finish.

| Bordelet Poire Granit |
Poiré Granit actually has 75-80 grams of sugar per liter, yet it
doesn't taste particularly sweet. This is due to the tannin and acidity, which
Bordelet says is twice as high as the apple!

| Bordelet Sydre Argelette |
The Argelette,
Eric notes, "is more winey. Some vintages have to stay in the cellar
longer. Argelette is the type of soil and it's the same 40-40-20 blend of the
other apple ciders." This tends to have more skin contact, he explains.

| Bordelet Sydre Doux |
The Sydre
"Doux" is an off-dry apple cider, with about 80 grams per
liter of sugar, yet it is beautifully balanced. A Brut apple has but about 5-10
grams per liter, so it's drier than many Brut Champagnes!

| Brunier Telegramme CDP 2004 |
| It pours clear garnet, very light in color for a Châteauneuf-du-Pape. It seems light on the nose and palate, too, opening with a vinous scent of raspberries, spice, faint vegetal notes and a high-toned whiff of volatile acidity. It's a little more inviting in its flavor, juicy and very tart, simple red fruit and white pepper over almost sour acidity, on the thin side. |

| Charbonniere CDP Perdrix 03 |
| The 2003 Chateauneuf du Pape Mourre des Perdrix reveals a saturated dark ruby/purple-tinged color as well as a classic perfume of black cherries, raspberries, flowers, and a notion of barnyard/earth. With a fleshy texture, medium to full body, loads of depth, low acidity, ripe tannin, and wonderful sweetness, purity, and overall elegance, it resembles a synthesis in style between a grand cru Cotes de Nuits and a Chateauneuf du Pape. |
