I just realized that I never reviewed this Cognac, despite there being relatively few of them.
Pear, white grape, and apple on the nose, but obfuscated by intense alcohol (new bottle). The palate is more of the same, except that the apple becomes applesauce with plenty of cinnamon, and the pear becomes decidedly d'Anjou. Sweet tea fades into the finish with a hint of white peach.
Besides being a simple and sweet Cognac to herald the warmer months, it is also the second best that I've found for mixing with Benedictine (Courvoisier is 1st), which only adds to its value.
