Tasting Notes

Tasting Notes by Stuart P
-
Nose
Rich stewed fruits – apples, raisins and dates. Heady aromas of cinnamon and nutmeg.
-
Palate
Sticky dates and Christmas-cake spices with tempting notes of ginger and glace fruits. Very rich and classy, but balanced with a pronounced fruitiness. Powerful flavours on the palate, but no single element dominates.
-
Finish
Dry spices and root ginger linger.
-
Comment
Very moreish and appealing, this has the full flavour you expect from XO Cognac but with balance and poise that transforms it.

Producer's Note
-
Colour
Amber old gold.
-
Bouquet
Very rich bouquet with an exceptional finesse. Scents of spicy, woody aromas and praline notes. Specific to very old Grande Champagne Cognacs distilled with the lees.
-
Palate
Very floral aromas with scents of spices. Prolonged ageing in new Limousin oakcasks in humid cellars gives roundness and many aromas (hyacinth, narcissus, musky).It brings also plumpness and suppleness to this old Grande Champagne. An Extra Old quality enriched with much older Cognacs coming from the Family reserve. A very exceptional Cognac.

Beautiful Brandy has finesse elegance and a unique character an ULTRA SMOOTH tasting experience. On the palette it gives the sensation of liquid silk and the first drops taste of dusted icing sugar on the surface of your tongue. Well worth the purchase.
