Very close to the country village of Franklin, nestled between fields, hills and wooded areas, we come across many orchards. Among them, Entre Pierre & Terre<\/a> is well known for its ciders and agricultural spirits that are anything but ordinary. Let\u2019s visit this estate where traditions are preserved, but without fear of innovation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our destination today: the interior landscapes of the beautiful Mont\u00e9r\u00e9gie region. Known by outdoor enthusiasts and lovers of farmstead products, the small roads criss\u2011crossing the Mont\u00e9r\u00e9gie-West region abound in country delights. On our way to Franklin, located just a stone\u2019s throw from the American border, we find ourselves immersed in the soothing ambiance of the countryside, occasionally punctuated by pleasant urban settings as we go through the charming villages of Saint\u2011R\u00e9mi and Saint\u2011Chrysostome. Then, as we pass along a row of orchards and maple groves, we arrive at Entre Pierre &\u00a0Terre, whose name pays tribute to the plains and hills surrounding us, but also, as we will quickly learn, reflects the concern for respecting the land without altering it through the use of chemical fertilizers or\u00a0pesticides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But why are we visiting this orchard in particular? Because it produces ciders and spirits that are both original and accessible to all palates. Macerated or kegged ciders, perries, lemon\u2011basil gin, vermouth, brandy, cr\u00e8me de pommes. There\u2019s plenty to pique our curiosity and stimulate our taste buds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A space for exploration<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Entre Pierre & Terre does not offer a U\u2011pick option, but we still come across pickers who have come to help the owners harvest the apples, pears and small hardy kiwis that will be used to make various products. Lo\u00efc Chanut, who co\u2011owns the enchanting property with his spouse Michelle Boyer, welcomes us and gives us a tour of the orchards. Of French origin and a wine expert like his father, he has had a relationship with the land since his early childhood. He worked in the vineyard with his father, and later for other grape growers and cider producers with whom he developed, among other creations, pear ice wine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But it was a project that interested both members of their couple that brought him to Franklin. \u201cMichelle and I wanted to have our own space, first so that I could work on the weekends, as I hate being inactive,\u201d he says. By luck or by coincidence, he and his spouse found the current estate where, in the beginning, there was a small orchard and some pastures. They immediately fell in love with the place where everything seemed possible, and they chose to do what they knew best: alcohol production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The fruits of their labour<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe began with the principle that to produce alcohol, we needed to begin at the beginning and produce our own fruits,\u201d says Lo\u00efc. The wine expert decided to concentrate primarily on the production and fermentation of apples and pears. However, these fruits that are relatively common in appearance took on very distinctive names and looks at Entre Pierre & Terre. \u201cI asked a nursery operator to find specific ancestral fruit varieties,\u201d explains the owner. \u201cMany of them are rare and cannot be found elsewhere. We even developed one so that the fruit can be gathered in its overripe state once it has fallen on the ground. It\u2019s wonderful! What interests me are fruits at the end of the season, when they are too acidic and simply inedible.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to these varieties with their particular flavours, but also their interesting environmental characteristics, since they are naturally resistant to disease and insects, Lo\u00efc Chanut produces small vintages of cider and perry combining traditional know\u2011how with techniques and unions that are surprising. The maceration of apples with red wine or orange skins for the Piquette line; cider aged in pear\u2011ice\u2011wine or whisky barrels for the Cidre bouch\u00e9 line; or a mixture with beer brewers\u2019 grains and berries for the P\u00e9teux line \u2026 We can see that the owner enjoys playing around with conventions. \u201cBut whatever we can\u2019t do justice to, we simply don\u2019t do it,\u201d he specifies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From cider to spirits<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

It just needed one step to propel this exploration to the next level. And that step was taken two years ago when the owners of Entre Pierre & Terre acquired a German still that is perfect for producing schnapps, those clear spirits that are popular on the other side of the Atlantic. For the wine expert, this step represented both a big challenge and a way to better refine his creations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To meet the needs of a Qu\u00e9bec market that has become very fond of gin and, more generally, forms of alcohol that can be used in cocktails, Lo\u00efc Chanut created products like his Gin du verger. However, he admits to having a slight weakness for working with pears and what he considers his signature product, a unique pear liquor made from the fruit. \u201cThe pear distillate mixed with pure juice and aged for a few months before being bottled produces a magnificent spirit,\u201d he says proudly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Given the many Qu\u00e9bec spirits increasingly available on the market, how does Entre Pierre & Terre manage to stand out from its competitors? While the wine expert does not feel that local products play a big part, he nevertheless believes that three key elements come together at his estate: raw materials (the fruit) coming entirely from his land; water taken from a local underground source; and high\u2011quality Qu\u00e9bec ingredients such as wild herbs from the Gasp\u00e9sie region and flavours from \u00c9pices de cru.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Living from his art<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In the estate\u2019s small store, open Friday to Sunday or by appointment, the vintages concocted by Lo\u00efc Chanut have won over the hearts\u2014and palates\u2014of the visitors. \u201cPeople are now very open to discovering the universe of natural spirits and sparkling wines. They want to learn about all the great products coming out of Qu\u00e9bec\u2019s regions, and it\u2019s rare that they leave here without buying something,\u201d says the operator, who no longer has to contend with stress associated with debts. \u201cThere\u2019s nothing more satisfying than to work at and earn a living from your art. What does tomorrow hold? I have no idea. I live one day at a time. As Nicolas Hulot said, I\u2019m optimistic by nature and pessimistic by reason. And, of course, right now I\u2019m taking full advantage of this wave of love for our products, and I\u2019m continuing to discover and try things. And I have faith in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
