The Dupont family are one of the great names of Calvados and produce this VSOP release from apples grown it the heart of the pays d'Auge. The production is now headed up by Etienne Dupont and he has spent the last 25 years solely focussed on improving quality. We think in his search he has achieved something quite special and his apple brandies really do rival what is being produced further south from grapes in Cognac. This is a wonderful bottling and should be sipped neat alongside a selection of great cheeses.
