Cognac with sharp balsamic notes and hints of chocolate, enlivened with champagne

I had leftover sparkling wine and so set out to make this. Opened the pantry and no balsamic vinegar! Undaunted, I used Chinkiang black vinegar, which has a similar flavor profile. Gave it more of an earthy note, but still interesting.
