At the start of its ageing, this cognac undergoes a rapid passage in new barrels to keep the natural aromatics of the eaux-de-vie. It will then be transferred to an old barrel to continue its development in a humid cellar to promote its roundness and accentuate the rancios.
This blend is a mixture of eaux-de-vie with and without lees aged 25 to 30 years, selected only from the terroirs of Petite and Grande Champagne.
With its ABV of 40%, the reduction of eaux-de-vie in a natural way is favored, with very little reduction. This high degree offers a more accomplished taste discovery as well as a better perception of aromas.
This cognac contains no additives, sugar, or caramel. Only a slight filtration is carried out to preserve its aromatic qualities as much as possible.
OLFACTORY NOTES
The first aromas of oak then evolve towards scents of vanilla, citrus, lemon zest and finally toasted almond and nougat.
TASTING NOTES
Creamy and rich on the palate, caramel then touches of black tea, honey, and very old oak.
Very pleasant length in the mouth for this resolutely elegant cognac.
