Who makes it

Château du Breuil is a distillery whose named product is Pommeau de Normandie Château du Breuil. The establishment operates under the name La Spiriterie Française Château du Breuil Normandie after its transition from Château du Breuil Calvados Pays d’Auge. Château du Breuil remains the distillery brand used for product labeling.

Where it grows

Le Breuil-en-Auge sits in the heart of the Pays d’Auge. The estate is surrounded by 28 hectares of grounds populated with centuries old trees. Apple trees are part of the estate grounds; vineyards and grape varieties are not identified.

What they make

Pommeau de Normandie Château du Breuil is the named bottle. Pommeau de Normandie names an apple based fortified drink category, and the bottle carries that appellation alongside the producer name. Its name contains no vintage or reserve designation.

Pommeau de Normandie brings apple fruit and the fuller texture associated with fortification. Château du Breuil’s bottle places that style under the Pommeau de Normandie appellation, with the producer name clearly attached to the category.
