Petite Champagne Cognac 1968, 40%, bottled 2018.
"Aged gold with slight coppery tinges. Immaculate limpidity. Impeccable viscosity accentuated by the persistence of the legs.
1st Nose: Tremendous intensity with progressively intensifying aromas of candied watermelon and dried nuts.
2nd Nose: Creamy patinated wood accompanied by elegant floral notes balanced by a lingering rancio.
A soft attack with an ample, round and silky character supported by a fusion of floral, spicy and fruit aromas held together by a delicate oakiness with a touch of rancio. The climax is brilliantly smooth and the aftertaste splendidly enduring. Worthy to be figuring amongst the nominees and winners of the spectacular eau-de-vie from cru Petite Champagne."
