Tasting Notes
"The primary fruit factor is huge on the aroma and shows very little wood or spice factor. The youth of the brandy shows on the palate again with its brightness and fruit-juice flavors. There is little depth and complexity to the cognac, and this is not likely one you will be sipping to contemplate its merits. Which is not to say that it's poorly made. It's just not one to get cerebral with; this is one you want to have in your mixed drinks."
