Père Magloire Calvados VSOP

Normandy. Pays d'Auge. Double Distillation. Rich & Complex.

Père Magloire VSOP Calvados is a step up in complexity and terroir from the VS — sourced exclusively from apple ciders harvested in the Pays d'Auge, a delimited appellation representing only 6% of the Normandy region and the most prestigious terroir in Calvados production. The Pays d'Auge designation requires double distillation in traditional copper pot stills, a process that develops a richer, more complex character than the continuous distillation used for VS. The result is a Calvados of genuine depth and regional identity — a rich, long palate that speaks directly to the unique soil and climate of this exceptional Norman terroir.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Rich and complex — ripe apple, dried fruit, vanilla, and a warm oak character with the distinctive depth of Pays d'Auge double distillation
• Palate: Rich and long — baked apple, caramel, dried fruit, and a warm oak spice with the added complexity of Pays d'Auge terroir and VSOP aging
• Finish: Long and warming with lingering apple, caramel, and a dignified, satisfying close
