Boulard Calvados Pays d’Auge Grand Solage
by Boulard
A refined and expressive Calvados from the heart of Normandy’s prestigious Pays d’Auge region, Grand Solage represents the art of French apple brandy at its best — elegant, textured, and beautifully aromatic.
Calvados Pays d’Auge AOC: the premier appellation for French apple brandy
Distilled from carefully selected cider apples (often bitter and bittersweet varieties)
Aged in oak barrels — developing complexity, depth, and smoothness
Grand Solage is crafted for superior aromatic intensity and refined balance
This is Calvados for sipping and contemplation, not just mixing.
Nose
Baked apple, quince, pear skin, dried apricot, cinnamon, warm vanilla, light oak spice
Palate
Rich orchard fruit layered with honeyed notes, nutmeg, toasted oak, and subtle citrus peel; silky texture
Finish
Long, warm, and comforting with lingering fruit and spice
Elegant and refined — smooth yet characterful
Great complexity without heaviness
Perfect as a sipping spirit after dinner
Neat in a tulip glass or brandy balloon
With miniature dark chocolate or apple tarte fine
Slightly warmed in hand to release aromatics
Boulard Calvados Pays d’Auge Grand Solage delivers the pure expression of Normandy’s apple brandy tradition: layered orchard fruit, gentle spice, oak richness, and a long, satisfying finish.
