As Robb, the creator of this cocktail, says, it is "short strong and fruity, pulls out all the deeper notes from the cognac."

Different from the typical. The main impact is pleasantly fruity. The Pinot Noir really makes itself known, giving the drink a tannic backbone. The flavors on this are quite intense, and could perhaps use a bit of dilution, or at least to be served very cold in small quantities; probably not one I'll come back to, but I'm glad I tried it.
