Tasting note
Distilled in 1970, this Calvados Pays d'Auge has matured in oak casks so far. The aging was finished in port casks for about two years and one year in sherry casks.
Tasting Notes: Mature golden amber colour with characteristic greenish reflections, rich sweet nose with delicate pastry-like fragrance. Sweet, supple, silky mouth.
"Calvados Pays d'Auge 1970: mature golden amber colour with characteristic greenish reflections, rich sweet nose with a fine fragrance of vanilla, apples and spices, powerful delivery with typical baked apple and raisins taste on the palate. Well-balanced fruit and alcohol with lingering finish". Decanter, Dec. 1997 (USA) "This beauty displayed a deep chestnut brown colour and an oddly scrumptious fragrance that was burnt and bacon fat-like. I like this bold, assertive bouquet immensely". Paul PACULT (USA)
