Color: brown gold hue, deep golden reflections. Nose: dried fruits, candied and caramelized apples, nuts. A powerful and oxidative nose. Palate: soft, powerful, and delicious attack. Ample palate, with a beautiful richness, reminiscent of crème brûlée. Warm, rounded finish. Pairing: a Tarte Tatin or to be enjoyed on its own. Comment: a superb calvados.
