Calvados Millesime 1996 - Cofanetto (Caraffa) - Pays D'Auge Lecompte

The Calvados Millesime 1996 by Lecompte, hailing from the prestigious region of Pays d’Auge, is a refined and elegant expression of the art of apple distillation. Presented in a delightful boxed set with a carafe, this calvados embodies the essence of tradition and quality that characterize the Lecompte house.

Distilled in 1996, this calvados has undergone a long aging period in oak barrels, giving it a complexity and depth of flavor that is rarely found in other spirits. The color is a rich amber, with reflections that gleam brightly when met with light.

On the nose, the Millesime 1996 offers an intensely rich aromatic bouquet, with dominant notes of baked apples, caramel, and vanilla, complemented by hints of cinnamon and nutmeg. The entry on the palate is smooth yet powerful, with an explosion of flavors that reflect the aromas sensed olfactorily, enriched by a light note of toasted wood and tobacco. The finish is long and rewarding, leaving a pleasingly warm and spicy sensation.

This Calvados Millesime 1996 is particularly suited to be enjoyed post-meal as a digestive, perfect for accompanying an evening in good company or celebrating special occasions. It is also an ideal gift for enthusiasts of high-quality spirits and for those who appreciate distilled beverages with a rich history and distinctive character.
