The Cotentin appellation (PDO) area is located in the Manche department. It nurtures its orchard in the heart of the bocage, on plots with deep soils protected by natural hedges. The quality of the harvest is optimized by the orchard's permanent grass cover, which cushions the fall of the fruits. 

The local varieties, predominantly bittersweet, contribute to a pleasing mouthfeel and guarantee the bitter freshness of Cotentin cider, which becomes even more pronounced when the product's label bears the "Extra Brut" designation.

Perche PDO cider is a pure juice cider with natural carbonation in the bottle. It is neither pasteurized nor carbonated. The "degraded" oceanic climate (less rainfall, colder winters, warmer summers) and the diverse soil types of the Perche hills have allowed for the selection of around fifty varieties adapted to this terroir. These varieties, most of which are late-ripening, give Perche cider its balance of roundness, bitterness, and acidity, offering great aromatic complexity and a pleasantly refreshing finish.

The Poiré Domfront (Domfront perry) finds its roots in a traditional orchard of pear trees unique in Europe, planted in deep and fresh soils. Through the emphasis to "nature" in its production methods (local varieties of perry pear, slow fermentation, natural bottle refermentation), the Domfront perry expresses not only its terroir but also the vintage that brought it into being. 

Both rounded and distinctive, thanks to the flagship variety of the appellation, "Plant de Blanc," this rare product plays with a balance of sweetness and acidity, heightened by a hint of astringency.
