Lively, fruity, and somewhat herbal, with notes of aromatic flowers on the nose. The flavor is rich, full and has a deep and somewhat rustic character that brings out the grape character expressively. Quite unlike the usual cognacs available in North America, this one has a unique character that can only be described as intriguingly terroir driven. To fully appreciate this spirit, let it breathe a bit before imbibing. A truly special release that recreates a flavor that was until recently, unavailable to all but a lucky few.
