Victor Gontier Calvados Domfrontais 500ml

France

A young, vibrant calvados distilled from apple and pear.

This 2013 vintage comes from distiller/farmer Victor Gontier, who’s located in the Domfrontais region.

Calvados is an authentic apple brandy from Normandy, France.

With the superior quality brought by the Domfrontais Appellation (an AOC [Appellation of Controlled Origin] granted in 1985, requesting a minimum percentage of 35% of pear juice with the apple juice, amongst many other requests). The pear gives the Domfrontais Calvados a very fruity character. Victor Gontier products are heathy and robust in flavours.  An authentic Calvados, with confit apple on the nose, quince paste on the palate and a lovely and long pear return from the back palate. Great match with cheeses from the region.
