Claire's FIne
It is a classic oyster created according to a rigorous production process. Her offspring can last up to 4 years. For its completion, it is deposited 4 weeks, at 3 kg per square meter (in winter; 1kg / m2 for 2 weeks in summer), in small ponds of the lower Marennes Oléron, called claires, fed in preserved water, in order to harden its skin and refine its meat. It is an oyster that has a meat between 7 and 10.5% of its total weight. In the mouth it is "rich in water" and reveals a highly iodized flavor that causes an intense taste of the ocean.
We are Oyster Producers, we supervise each stage of cultivation with mastery and exigency, controlling all technical aspects, selection, cleaning and packaging, thus guaranteeing the quality offered by the Daniel Sorlut brand.
Our cultivation takes place on the French coast of the Charente-Maritime region, right at the mouth of the Charente river, on the surface of the 3,000 hectare Marennes Oléron delta. For centuries this growing area has been the chosen one by oyster farmers. With shallow and calm waters, the algae have flourished profusely. Plots of salt water connected by a network of channels and fed according to the tides, the claires offer the optimal environment for our oyster to receive the necessary nutrients for its growth.
After decades of evolution, at Ostras Daniel Sorlut we have culminated our offer in four unique flavored oysters: the Fine de Claire, the Fine de Claire Label Rouge, the Spéciale de Claire and the Spéciale Daniel Sorlut.
