Cider enthusiast Michel Dargent hosted Ria at his home in Normandy France in September 2017. Monsieur Dargent is a cider aficionado, making the two night stay at his gîte (bed & breakfast) the perfect stop on Ria’s cider tour of Normandy.
Listen in on this intimate conversation as we discuss the ancient pear trees in the Domfront region, blood sausage and a very special cidermaker.
Monsieur Dargent made the evening dinner with all local products from a nearby farm and served each dish with a cider (cidre) and perry (poiré).
Régis Angot, the maker, was one of the stops on the Totally Cider Tour to Normandy September 23 -29, 2018.
