This 8-year-old Calvados “Sauternes Cask Finish” spent several months in small French oak barrels that were once used for the ageing of Sauternes wine. Through this ageing method, gourmet and fruity notes are imparted to this “ageless” Calvados, giving rise to an original and elegant creation that combines traditional methods with modernity
