Flavors of Pear Vinegar

Pear vinegar offers fruity, sweet, and delicate notes with a slight acidity reminiscent of pears. It presents a slightly spicy, floral aroma, creating a subtle balance. The aroma of pear vinegar makes it an excellent choice for vinaigrettes, marinades, sauces, and even desserts.

Production of Pear Vinegar by Huilerie Beaujolaise

To produce pear vinegar, selected pears are pressed to extract the juice, also known as "must." The must is allowed to ferment naturally thanks to the yeasts present in the environment. These yeasts convert the sugars in the must into alcohol in the alcoholic fermentation process, transforming it into pear wine. This wine is then converted into acetic acid, turning it into vinegar. Finally, it undergoes filtration before being bottled.

How to Use Pear Vinegar?

Pear vinegar pairs perfectly with green salads with walnuts, cheese, or foie gras, adding a slightly sweet and tangy note. It is also highly regarded in pastry, ideal for flavoring desserts and enhancing the taste of your baked goods.
