Visual aspect: amber gold, brilliant hue, beautiful tears. Nose: very aromatic, complex, fine, fat, smoked, apricot, vanilla, apricot compote, flowery, acacia, cinnamon, curry, cigar box aromas. Palate: fresh and silky first taste. Beautiful fatness. Pure, very delicate, elegant and fine, ample and round. A tasting Cognac, subtle and refined. Liquorice and delicacy in the finish. Gourmet pairings: foie gras and pistacchio crumble. Comments: very successful Grande Champagne brandy. Quite feminine. One of the sommeliers' favourites.
