 Cider apples 

  

Although it is especially popular in this period of "galette des rois", cider deserves to be tasted more often than not.

This drink with its millenary history, resulting from the fermentation of apple juice, tries to compete with the beer in the bars. It even tries to make its way to your table, to accompany a meal.

Yes, cider is much more than fermented apple juice! The apple is to cider what the grape is to wine. And if each grape variety influences the aromatic properties of wine, the same applies to cider where each variety of apples has its own character. Some cider producers have even become masters in the art of assembling different varieties of apples.

It is one of the oldest alcoholic beverages in the world. Mead, a product produced by the fermentation of an assemblage of water and honey, has been renowned for various virtues since the beginning of time. Strenght, in particular. Talk to the druid Panoramix... the mead is one of the ingredients of his famous magic potion! We also attribute to this drink aphrodisiac properties: in the lnar month following the wedding, it was also advisable for young couples to consume mead... hence the expression "honeymoon"!

Bougie et flûte à champagne

 

The "traditional method", do you know it? This is the name given to the technique of making Champagne. It is called "Champenoise method" there. Appellation of origin oblige, we practice this same technique elsewhere under the name of "traditional method", especially for Spanish Cava, for Italian Franciacorta, and ... for most sparkling Quebecers!

 

The best method?

 

You are about to start the marathon holidays, with Christmas parties here and there with friends, in the family, and even the office! You wonder again how you will manage to surprise your loved ones? With a Quebec wine well chosen (and mostly served), voila! ... Of course, you're afraid of the reaction of your brother who has prejudices against wines from Quebec, or your colleague who pretend to be a "wine expert". The solution?
