Camus VSOP Borderies Cognac (2014 Limited Release)
Cognac
CAMUS // Borderies, France
The 2014 Limited Release Borderies VSOP, a creation of Cellar Master Patrick Leger, is comprised of 100% single-growth Borderies grapes and composed mainly of ugni blanc. The eaux-de-vie are distilled on the lees with careful attention paid to the “Coeur de chauffe” or the "heart of the distillation" to extract the full range of aromatics possible.
Lastly, it underwent a period of careful and closely-watched ageing in a dry cellar, then in progressively damper cellars, in order to preserve all the finesse and aromatic expression of the Borderies. .

Tasting Notes
"Aromas of pear and caramel with nuances of cinnamon and vanilla are your first contact with this unique cognac. It comes alive with the first taste, assertive, off-dry and rich with more cinnamon, honey and toasted bread. Finishes long, warm and with a touch of barrel tannins. Overall quite delicious though not very complex. "
