Located in the very heart of the Pays d’Auge in Normandy, the Domaine Familial Louis DUPONT is today run by Etienne Dupont and his son, Jérôme, 3rd and 4th generations, respectively. Since taking over in 1980, Etienne has improved the old orchards and following the traditional methods of producing Calvados, the apples are hand-picked and rest in open wooden boxes called pallox to reach their highest aromatic peak. The juice is slowly extracted under low pressure and kept on its lees for 2 months to prevent any alteration of the cider’s flavor. The apple cider then undergoes a double distillation through a sophisticated Chalvignac copper still. . The nose takes all its complexity after oxygenation, slightly oaked. Taste: Smooth and balanced, with a good persistence. Very retro-nasal. It's a good compromise between the freshness of fruits and the concentration of old eau de vie.
