Pere Magloire Calvados V.S.O.P. 750 ML

Color - Superb dark golden color. Nose - Heavily scented apple blossom aroma. Palate - Delicious crisp flavour, harmoniously blending with the freshness of the fruit. Wine Enthusiast 89 points - Silky and almost slick on the palate, this spicy sipper starts with vanilla, oak and a hint of orange peel, then accelerates through baking spice to hot cinnamon and cayenne. A splash of water helps moderate the alcohol heat and teases out more vanilla..Kara Newman, December/2016 Ultimate Beverage Challenge 93 points - Baked, ripe, and candied apple leap from the glass. The amber color suggests the mouthfeel - voluptuous, rounded and silky with a hint of fruity sweetness. More baked apple and warm fall spices on the palate, with a round, weighty finish..April/2014 V.S.O.P. is notable because it is made only from cider from apples harvested in the Pays d’Auge, an area covering barely 6% of Normandy. The character this soil gives the apples, combined with double distillation* in copper stills, offers the V.S.O.P. richness and length. V.S.O.P. is blended from Calvados which has been aged in oak barrels for at least four years.
