The Manoir d'Apreval is a family estate located on the coast in the north of Pays d'Auge, by the sea between Honfleur and Trouville. Respecting traditions and appellations, the team at Manoir d'Apreval uses its apple and pear orchards with tall trunks in organic farming and produces pure juices, with no added sugars, and vintage ciders with natural effervescence allowing them to preserve the best expression of their terroir.
