Wine from Normandy
Filter
Because of the ocean climate, Normandy is not known for wine, but there have been vineyards in the past that have produced inexpensive boxed wine. There is only one small winery in Upper Normandy, which is locally renowned for producing excellent wine that goes well with the famous meals in the area. Arpents du Soleil is the name of the local winery. The climate in the northern part of Normandy is a sunny and dry microclimate. In 2007, this vineyard produced 15,000 bottles of wine. Produced in Normandy, Pommeau de Normandie is a drink made with pears and apples, two of Normandy’s specialites. Pommeau is produced by mixing apple eau-de-vie with slightly fermented apple must. This raises the alcohol level high enough so that the yeast will survive. Without yeasts, the fermentation process will stop. After fermentation, the producers are left with an apple scented juice that is quite sweet. The final alcohol content is between 16 and 18%. The process is known as mutage and is essentially the same technique that is used for making vins doux naturels. Pommeau is a mistelle. This is a French term that means partially fermented fruit fortified with alcohol.
