French Dessert Wine

Pommeau is the pre-dinner drink par excellence in Normandy, and this Pommeau from Le Pere Jules is one of the prime examples. It is made by mixing freshly squeezed apple juice with young Calvados (1 year old), which is allowed to age further in oak barrels – here it is a minimum of 5 years – where it gets an extra layer of complexity on top of the fresh apple notes and the light sweetness.

Colour: Golden.
Smell: Summery scent of ripe apples, cinnamon and citrus.
Tasting notes: The taste is sweet, but also has a refreshing acidity and a good depth.

Serving suggestion: Do as in Normandy and enjoy it chilled before dinner.

The year is 1919 and Jules Desfrieches, just returned from the First World War, begins to produce and sell cider for the first time. In 1923 he distilled his first Calvados. In 1949, the son, Léon Desfrieches, took over the business and named it Le Père Jules. Léon’s son, Thierry, took part in the family business in 1976. Guillaume, Thierry’s son, in 2002. To this day, Guillaume manages the production and Le Pére Jules only works with apples and pears from their own orchard. The plot covers an area of 100 hectares and just under half of the area is planted with apple trees, while a tenth is planted with pear trees. They follow ecological principles and let their 100 cows roam freely on the grounds and naturally fertilize the plantation.

They follow ecological principles and, for example, let their 100 cows roam freely on the grounds and naturally fertilize the plantation rather than using artificial fertilizers.
