Tasting note |
This cognac is golden amber in colour. It develops a fruity grape and floral bouquet characteristic of Grande Champagne. There is also a discreet hint of vanilla from the tannin in the oak barrels in which it matures. The persistence of the flavours reflects a balance and a maturity that is already clearly marked.
