Review and Tasting


Sampled on 12/04/2019

Appearance:

Clear, golden amber.

Aroma:

Floral parma violet is immediately apparent with nutty caramel, vanilla fudge, fresh pear and mango.

Taste:

Fruity and floral with jasmine, violet, fresh ripe pear, toasted almond, elegant vanilla oak and delicate spice.

Aftertaste:

Floral notes continue with nutty oak and light spice.

Overall:

As V.S. cognacs go this is an outstanding example. Lighter and more floral in style than many without the heavy caramel notes found in some.
