Domaine Thurel Julien

Domaine Thurel Julien

Based in the Loiret, in Loury, Julien Thurel first lived several lives, including ornithologist and lumberjack. Since 2012, he has put all his energy into finding the best varieties of apples and pears, choosing those most adapted to the different soils he exploits (flint, limestone, clay). Its objective: the production of delicate, complex and ageable ciders and perries.

All the varieties he works with come from Gâtinois and Sancerrois. A rare element in this production, he does not use chemicals and harvests everything by hand, like a peasant farmer. The fruits are then left between 10 days and 1 month, depending on the vintage and variety, on slats. This operation concentrates the flavors, the sugar and facilitates a good pressing. Each variety is pressed and fermented separately and naturally (natural yeasts) in stainless steel tanks. The second fermentation takes place in barrels. No inputs and everything is certified organic. Haute couture ciders cut for the table!
