A unique and delicious aperitif wine made by mixing 2/3 fresh apple cider and 1/3 one-year-old Calvados (a cognac-style spirit made from apples) then aging it for three to four years in old oak barrels at the Manoir La Brière des Fontaines estate in Normandy, France. 750ml/btl.  17% alc/vol.

Tasting Notes

A beautiful amber color. Rich apple aromas that quickly give way to tastes of almond, honey, cherry and dried fruit on the palate.  A lingering subtle oak finish.

How to Serve

Can be enjoyed neat or over ice as an aperitif.  Pairs beautifully with prosciutto-wrapped melon appetizers. A wonderful compliment to apple or chocolate desserts. Also use for cooking and making sauces for seafood.
