Joseph Cartron Crème de Pêche de Vigne is a vine peach liqueur from Burgundy, bottled at 18% ABV. Joseph Cartron is a family distillery in Nuits-Saint-Georges that has been producing benchmark liqueurs since 1882.
Of the many peaches grown in France, those of Burgundy are known for their sweetness and aromatics. The fruit for this liqueur is grown on the slopes of the Hautes Côtes de Bourgogne.
These small white vine peaches reveal a red-flecked flesh, which gives the liqueur its gorgeous golden colour and intense aromatic flavour.
It is bright and golden, lavish yet elegant on the nose, with juicy fresh fruit and subtle floral notes; the mouth is round and oily, with a rich texture and a juicy mid-palate.
It is a true taste of Burgundy, and a refined gift for anyone who loves fruit liqueurs.

How to Enjoy It
Crème de pêche makes a beautiful Bellini-style aperitif: pour a little into a flute and top it with Champagne, crémant or prosecco. It is lovely in a Kir with dry white Burgundy, in a peach spritz with soda water and mint, or in a Fish House Punch with rum and cognac. Add a splash to a bourbon smash, a gin sour or a peach Old Fashioned. On its own, serve it chilled over ice. Drizzle it over vanilla ice cream, panna cotta, pavlova or fresh berries, and pair it with soft cheeses, foie gras and summer desserts. Keep the bottle in the refrigerator after opening to preserve its fresh fruit.
