Domaine Dupont Hors d’Age Calvados has been aged for a minimum of 6 years in barrel with the use of 25% new oak.
Made by the Dupont family, their history of producing fine Calvados goes back over 300 years. Today they manage 27 hectares planted with around 6000 apple trees.
The apples are mixed, crushed and pressed. The apple juice is fermented right out to give cider to be distilled. Producers carry out double distillation one month after the fermentation has taken place. The first distillation gives the “petite eau” at 30% by volume and it is the second distillation, that of the “petite eau”, which then gives the Calvados.
The Calvados then ages in toasted oak barrels for a minimum of sixyears to develop its complex flavour profile. Bottled at 42% ABV, this is one to savour.
Enjoy Domaine Dupont VSOP Calvados as an aperitif over ice, or a digestif after a luxurious dinner. It also shines poured over sorbet for a decadent dessert.
Colour: Golden yellow, slightly coppery.
Nose: Pleasant, fine with good complexity, lightly wooded. Fruit aromas of apple and banana. Floral hints of rose and jasmine. Develops in complexity when smelt again after swirling.
Mouth: Sweet attack, excellently balanced. Fruity hints of ripe apples. Finally, hints of wood.
