Calvados 8 ans d'age futs...

TYPOLOGY: Calvados Pays d'Auge A.O.C. - ' Reserve du Château 8 Ans futs Sauternes '.<br /><br />PRODUCTION AREA: Pont- l'Évêque - Normandy<br /><br />RAW MATERIAL: Apples (from mainly small trees).<br /><br />DISTILLATION: Before obtaining the cider, the apples undergo blending and pressing, they are carefully washed and treated to extract the pulp of the fruit on the one hand,<br />and the must on the other, which must macerate for at least 6 weeks before reaching the alcohol content required for distillation, i.e. 4.5% vol. minimum.Double distillation,<br />carried out strictly with discontinuous copper stills.<br /><br />SOIL TYPE: Clayey soil, rich in nitrogen and potassium.<br /><br />COLOUR: Brilliant and luminous<br /><br />BOUQUET: Soft and fruity, with wonderful aromas of walnut, unripe hazelnut, fresh almond and vanilla<br /><br />FLAVOUR: In tasting, the apple remains very present, and the aftertaste is long and exceptional<br /><br />AGEING: It is aged in French oak barrels for at least 8 years and then carefully blended before bottling. As far as ageing is concerned, Calvados is very similar to the<br />classification of Cognac and Armagnac and just as with these spirits, only the age of the youngest distillate counts. If one mixes a 2-year-old calvados with a 30-year-old,<br />the final product has two years of ageing. This detail is important, because like brandies, Calvados is a blend of different vintages and distillates in terms of type and age.<br />What matters to the master distiller is the final product, so he tries to blend to find balance and finesse.<br />

Williams Spirit 500ml ZU PLUN

<br />PEAR WILLIAMS DISTILLATE<br /><br />Pear Williams distillate. No other fruit type is more frequently distilled in our areas than the Williams pear - it is undisputedly the queen among more or less aromatic pip<br />fruit types. Williams is a favourite, although whoever tasted a glass of a true top quality distillate will find the large majority of common or garden pear brandies flat at best,<br />even artificial at worst. Top quality is seldom reached in the industry because substantial effort is required: the Williams pear for the Zu Plun distillate come from the<br />Burgraviato and lower Venosta area near Naturno. When they are picked they need to be much riper than the pears grown for eating. Only then do they release the<br />concentrated aroma which is captured in this distillate. Freshly picked and brightly coloured, these pears are immediately cored by hand in order to avoid unwanted bitter<br />tones, then mashed straight away: a labour-intensive process where time is of the essence. One bottle of this distillate contains the aroma of more than 8 kg of fruit pulp.<br /><br />Raw material: Williams pears from Naturno and Burgraviato, Lana<br />Distillation method: discontinuous, in a copper still<br />Storage/ageing: -<br />Alcohol content: 42% VOL.<br />Content: 0.5 l<br />Colour-clearness: clear and colourless<br />Nose: Fruity aromas of fully ripe Williams pears<br />Palate: Transparent, pure-toned fruit notes with distinctive depth, mellow and well-structured<br />Finish: the finish of the most elegant among the pip fruit types stands out with remarkable, persistent length and a distinctive pithy-tart touch.<br />

Brandy Garofoli 12 anni 70cl

Brandy over 12 years<br /><br />The base is a single-varietal wine from a single vintage, 2003. The Montepulciano grapes were selected, harvested and vinified specifically for this production. The raw<br />material was distilled using a discontinuous bain-marie still in water diffusion. The passage of years, the balanced use of small oak casks and the magic of the microclimate<br />make this Brandy an exceptional product.<br /><br />Processing and refinement<br />The Brandy was distilled in 2003 from a wine specially vinified for this production. In 2004 the Brandy was aged in small, medium-toasted Allier oak barrels, previously used<br />to age Chardonnay wine. The Brandy remains in these barrels until 2012 when it is bottled and then left to rest in the bottle for a further 3 years. Finally, after 12 years from<br />the grape harvest, our Brandy is ready to be tasted.<br /><br />Colour: pale amber.<br />Nose: elegant woody floral notes, with hints of vanilla, sweet spices and dried fruit.<br />Taste: warm and enveloping sip, it introduces a pleasant texture<br />that conquers with an 'aroma of refinement' and softness.<br />Alchol: 43% vol.<br />Serving temperature: 16° - 18° C<br />
