G. Miclo Framboise Sauvage Grand Reserve

Distillerie G. Miclo has been making eaux-de-vie in Lapoutroie, deep in the Alsatian valleys, for over 60 years. The Framboise Sauvage - wild raspberry - is something of a house speciality, described by the Miclo family as their own personal favourite. Wild raspberries are far more intensely aromatic than cultivated fruit. The berries are macerated before distillation in copper pot stills using a slow bain-marie method, with only the heart of the distillate kept. Three to four years of ageing in the cellars earns it the Grande Réserve designation.

The nose is immediate and intense - pure wild raspberry. The palate is round and well-balanced, with a long, persistent finish that keeps the fruit going long after you've put the glass down. Serve it well chilled as a digestif, or use it in cocktails.
