Blended by 5th generation, family-run producer Raymond Ragnaud, who has been in Grande Champagne since 1860, Branson V.S.O.P. provides the purest expression of Grande Champagne Cognac. Aged for a minimum of 4 years, with the majority up to 7 years, the Cognac is bright gold with hints of bronze. Elegant and extraordinarily smooth with notes of peach, melon, and tobacco on the nose. Sweet spice, clove, and a hint of vanilla on the palate. Distilled in an original pot still from the 1800's. Sessile Oak used to impart more elegance and finesse. Some barrels 50+ years old.
Tasting Notes:
This golden and bronzed cognac has intense floral, fruit, spice and tobacco notes on the nose including ripe peach, cloves and cinnamon. On the palate, the same flavors are combined with a hint of vanilla, dried fruit and licorice. The finish is incredibly smooth with almost no burn, and exceptionally long with a lasting flavor in the mouth.
