Bottle shared by Jack, thanks! Pours a clear amber with a gold hue and no head whatsoever. Aroma has boozy sweet apple with a bit of acid and a hint of tartness. Flavor is full of rich juicy apple with toffee and burnt sugar underlying, a light booze and a hint of acid.

Poured from a 375 ml bottle dated 2010. Aroma is really nice with great apple character. Some candied notes with great spice character and caramel. Some light alcohol spice. Pours a lovely, clear copper gold color with some slightly red hues and no head. No lacing and long legs. Flavor is really sweet with some nice caramel and sugar notes. Nice apple character with some spice and hints of other fruits. Some light alcohol spice. Tons of apple character. Mouthfeel is medium full bodied with no carbonation. Low astringency and medium low alcohol warmth. Overall, a really tasty ice cider. Great sugar and spice notes with lots of apple character. One of the best out there.

Corked bottle, Millesime 2010
Light amber color. Deep aroma of caramel and concentrated apple juice, lively. Very sweet, yet not too syrupy; concentrated apple juice dominates the flavor, a bit of caramel, with a high degree of acidity, and ending like a good caramelized tarte tatin. Components are getting stronger, for a bold and long final.
Less complex than the best ones, but still wonderful.

2010 vintage. 375mL bottle, pours a clear bronze with no head. Nose is super complex, with caramelized apple, treacle toffee, almond essence, and low-medium sweetness for an ice cider. Flavour is super complex as well, with notes of almond, caramel, treacle toffee and brown sugar. Fair amount of alcohol heat that is well-situated, with medium sweetness. Elegant and complex. Phenomenal stuff.
