About this bottle

The Dupont family maintains orchards in the Pays d’Auge region, cultivating 6000 trees representing 13 different apple varieties. Their Fine Reserve blend consists of 80% bittersweet apples and 20% acidic apples. Following a double distillation process, it matures in oak for a minimum of two years, with half of that period spent in new oak.

Noe Wilcox 4.0

Clear, medium lemon color; clean scent with medium intensity, short aging, featuring Bartlett pear, daisy, honeycomb, golden apple, toasted coconut, and cardamom. The taste is dry, smooth, medium-bodied, with medium intensity. The fruit notes confirm the aroma, accompanied by significant vanilla, smoke, caramel, and cinnamon, leading to a long, somewhat complex finish; very good quality.

Micheal Mcgowan 4.0

Just as described by Niemisto typically. Delicate apple notes.
