Produced by a careful distillation of Ugni Blanc grapes, the beating heart of Cognac, this Hors d'Age expresses complexity and refinement. The extended aging in selected oak barrels gives it an intense amber color, enriched with fascinating coppery shades.
On the nose, it reveals tones of dried fruit, wilted wildflowers, and spicy notes of cinnamon and vanilla, followed by a slightly toasted scent. On the palate, it is soft, balanced, with a persistence that envelops the senses, leaving a trace of sweetness and a delicately spicy aftertaste.
Perfect as a post-meal meditation or paired with hazelnut desserts and dark chocolate, it is a distillate of great character and timeless charm.
