Tasting notes:

Nose: An aromatic explosion that fills the room with its presence! Here we meet a beautiful duality: on one hand, the delicate, fragile style with polished oak, on the other hand, the rich fruitiness of sweet cherries (summit and bigarreau noir), ripe plums, roasted chestnuts, and stewed pears. After some time in the glass, an elegant interplay of cherry liqueur, coffee, and chocolate develops, while bergamot and apricots provide refreshment.

Taste: A stunning balance between rustic power and refined elegance. The first sip brings a bright fruitiness of pink grapefruit, tangerines, and quinces, which slowly gives way to more complex layers of black bigarreau cherries, raisins, pipe tobacco, black tea, and a subtle spiciness. The oak provides structure with black pepper and licorice, while fruit peels and menthol candies add tension. As this cognac breathes, a captivating spectrum unfolds between fruit and spice, between liveliness and restfulness – exactly what you expect from an exceptional old cognac from the Petite Champagne region.

Finish: Beautifully long and layered, with a pleasant evolution from menthol fresh tones to cherry liqueur and wild heather honey in the aftertaste. The finish is like a good friend who stays a little longer by the fireside, with ever-new stories and nuances to discover
