Nose- boozy white grapes, yellow raisin, and a bit of musty leather book. Palate- palate stays true to the nose with the introduction of pear. This is not intricate but pleasant to sip. Finish- a bit waxy on the finish, but very fruity. A sweet cornucopia basket of flavors. Overall- I enjoyed it. A bit one note- white grapes, adult version of Welch's grape juice, but for the money this has merit. It is definitely sweet and ment as your dessert plate. A fun entry level cognac
