Mister Wright Fine Wines : 1593 Third Avenue : (212) 722-4564 :
Crafted from a blend of old calvados with a minimum of 6 years of age, and up to 8 years. Aromas of flowers on the nose with flavors of fruit, pear, and vanilla and a slight hint of oak on the palate with a long finish.
Claque-Pépin officially began 13 years ago. However, current owner Benoit Louvet has been immersed in the world of distilling and aging for many years. He began his “apprenticeship” fairly young with his grandfather Vital. After working for a few other Calvados producers as cellar master, he decided to start his own artisanal production and perpetuate the art of making calvados and cider, while respecting the Normand tradition and the environment. They farm 20 hectares of apple orchards.
Wine Enthusiast Review:
Concentrated vanilla and spice mingle with a violet hint on nose and palate. The finish is long, warming and tinged with allspice and cocoa. -K.N.
