Description

Double distillery

Domaine Dupont is situated in the heart of the Pays d’Auge Calvados; a region long considered to add a little extra to the finesse and delicacy of the calvados because it only permits the use of apples and insists on double pot distillation. Etienne Dupont, who took over from his father in 1980, has worked hard to improve both the old orchards and the distillation methods. The orchards now combine small standard trees as well as older taller trees, and the varieties such as Saint Martin, Doux Normandie and Noël des Champs are specially cultivated to provide the maximum aromatic qualities from their small fruits. To perfect his distilling techniques, Etienne went to Cognac and studied their methods. This, combined with the knowledge he inherited, produce a spirit that represents the flavour and ripeness of the apple alongside the mellowness and warmth of a wellaged spirit. He also experiments with ageing in different size casks and oak types to ensure that the flavour extracted through distillation is further enhanced during maceration. Dupont use three types of apples in a set formula : 30 % sweet, 30 % bitter and 40 % are apples with high acidity, this gives the correct balance of flavour. All the apples are cropped manually and stored in open wooden crates to allow them to rest and mature for up to a month before fermentation. Old Calvados is the perfect way to end an good meal, it can be served plain, while a calvados with more intense aromas will be appreciated either plain or to accompany well selected coffee, chocolates with high cocoa content, or cigars. The VSOP is aged for at least 4 years in oak casks. Bright and amber coloured. The nose is intense, complex, fine, with good concentration, fresh apples, citrus fruits and vanilla aromas. The nose developes complexity after breathing for a while. The palate is persistent with a touch of bitterness. There are also green apples, citrus fruits and vanilla flavours. Try plain or on ice or with a drop of water to enhance aromas or with dark chocolate cakes.
