Tasting Notes:
- Aroma: An extraordinarily complex and harmonious bouquet unfolds, revealing layers of mature fruit notes such as fig, plum, and quince, interwoven with delicate floral essences like iris and honeysuckle. Warm spices of cinnamon, clove, and a hint of saffron mingle with notes of old leather, sandalwood, and a subtle touch of rancio, a hallmark of very old Cognac.
- Flavor: The palate is greeted with a velvety and incredibly smooth texture, showcasing a symphony of concentrated flavors. Expect notes of candied fruit, honey, and a delicate sweetness balanced by elegant oak tannins. Hints of dark chocolate, roasted nuts, and a subtle exotic spice add further depth and intrigue. The Borderies eaux-de-vie contribute their signature floral and nutty elegance, while the Grande Champagne provides structure and length.
- Mouthfeel: Sumptuous and luxurious, coating the palate with a rich and viscous texture. The decades of aging have resulted in an exceptional integration of flavors and a seamless, mellow mouthfeel.
- Finish: The finish is exceptionally long and profound, with the complex array of fruit, floral, spice, and oak notes evolving gracefully. A subtle warmth and a lingering sense of elegance leave an unforgettable impression. The dragon decanter further enhances the experience, making this a truly exceptional and collectible Cognac.
