Christian Drouin 1972 Coeur De Lion Pays d'Auge Calvados

PRODUCER NOTES:

TASTING: “Amber robe; Bewitching on the nose, evolving towards spicy fragrances (nutmeg, pepper). Then develops into pear followed by jasmine; Almonds and rice-powder at the end of the glass; A frank attack on the palate underlined by a good level of acidity, become more full-bodied as the tannin-based structure of the Calvados emerges. Remarkable length and strength of aroma; Orange peel and nuts in the finish.”

PRODUCTION: “Single distillation. Aging in old Calvados casks.”
