CALVADOS - Christian Drouin - Pays d'Auge - 1986 - 42%

Maison Christian Drouin is located in the Pays d'Auge , in Normandy . In 1960, Christian Drouin father moved to the Fiefs Saint-Anne, near Honfleur. The farm is planted with cider apple trees and he quickly develops the desire to produce Calvados. With the help of Pierre Pivet, a renowned distiller, he spent the first twenty years distilling his cider production and storing it in buildings on the farm. In 1969, Christian Drouin Fils joined his father. Marketing began in 1979, when stocks were deemed sufficient. After 10 years spent abroad, Christian Drouin junior gives a new dimension to his Calvados and distributes them in particular to large hotels and restaurants. At the end of 1991, to satisfy the need for space resulting from the success of the estate, Christian Drouin transferred production to another farm near Pont l'Evêque. In 2004, Guillaume Drouin , third generation, joined the company. He is an agricultural engineer and oenologist and spent the first five years in the company developing exports before taking over production management and then management of the company in 2013.

The apples come from two orchards where there are around thirty different varieties . These orchards are managed according to the rules of organic farming . The cider ferments slowly then a double distillation is carried out in a pot still of 2,500 liters. The Calvados are aged in old casks of Sherry, Port, Rivesaltes, Banyuls...

Calvados Christian Drouin from the 1986 vintage comes from a double distillation. It underwent a classic ageing, followed by a one-year period in old Muscat de Rivesaltes barrels .
