Lhéraud Cuvée 10 Cognac
Cognac
Cognac Lhéraud // Petite Champagne, France
Lhéraud's age-designated cognacs are in fact "vintage" cognacs in disguise. Each cuvee is a blend of barrels from a single year, favoring character and transparency over the consistency afforded by blending multiple vintages.
The estate's younger bottlings comprise spirit that has spent the first few years of its life in new oak before being transferred to older barrels to complete its maturation. .

Tasting Notes
"Hints of green cardamom and tulip bulb lend a freshness and angularity to an otherwise fruit-driven aromatic profile, dominated by sweet dried apple and nutmeg. Appealingly sweet, the palate picks up the apple note and adds a little allspice and saffron to the finish. Lots of pretty flavors, but the texture is a little angular and the finish, while persistent, is not particularly dynamic. "
