Tasting Notes: Les Miserables

The quintessential French experience.

Cloyingly sweet notes of teen-insert-love-triangle linger on the tongue only to give way to the chocolate and oak of ethical and religious crises.

A perfect digestif.

Avoid common foible of pairing French novel with wine. Instead complement with a dram of Calvados Christian Drouin apple brandy and a slice of freshly baked baguette and soft butter.

…and snails if you have any

(Avoid the shells though)
