Tasting Notes
Colour
Warm amber-gold with a coppery sheen and a honeyed orchard-apple glow.
Nose
Bright orchard fruit and apple peel rise from the glass, with Calvados-brandy warmth lending depth. Green apples, pear, and hints of baked apple mingle with vanilla, spice and oak. A whisper of sea-salt and coastal air keeps the aroma buoyant, fruit-forward, and inviting.
Palate
Powerful yet refined, with a velvety, oil-rich mouthfeel. Orchard fruit leads—green apple, pear and quince—brightened by vanilla, toffee and a whisper of Calvados-spice. A coastal, saline edge underpins the sweetness, as maritime character lingers into a long, warm finish of oak and fruit.
Finish
Long, orchard-bright finish with crisp apple and pear notes that evolve into vanilla and toffee. Calvados influence glides alongside a maritime undertone—briny, saline air—while spice and oak linger, warming from the alcohol and fading to a refined, fruit-driven drift.
