IWSC 2020 – The Cognac Trophy & Gold Outstanding Award

“Exceedingly complex and boad in its depth of aromas and flavours.” Judges’ comments

A beautifully complex, fine cognac from the southern part of Grande Champagne. There are aromas of tobacco, sour plum, liquorice and roasted coffee. An initial burst of dark chocolate on the palate is followed by a host of different flavours including pork crackle, liquorice, marzipan, turmeric and kumquat. This is an astonishingly fine cognac.
