Manoir de Montreuil Calvados Selection (75cl)

Manoir de Montreuil Selection is a Calvados from the Pays d'Auge appellation, made at the domaine in Montreuil-en-Auge. It is double distilled from 100% apples in a gas-fired alembic pot still, then aged for three to five years in well-seasoned oak casks. It is bottled at a higher strength than most Calvados so that it keeps its structure in cocktails. The nose shows triple cream, gentian, white pepper, fresh linen and green apple skin. The palate is fiery, with pleasant tannin, and a slight salinity lingers on the finish.
