Martell XO Cognac with Gift Box, 70 cl Cognac & Brandy 3219820003703

A spicy, rich crescendo starting with the mellow elegance of the Borderies eau de vie, followed by the intensity and finesse typical of Grande Champagne. Golden amber with dark copper and mahogany highlights.Ground spice (black pepper, coriander) and red berries on the nose lead to rich fruit flavours: fig chutney and compote, almonds and walnuts. Rounded and fruity on the palate (notes of fig and walnut) followed by the characteristic power and finesse of eau-de-vie from Grande Champagne. A long and silken finish

Description

Cognac is distinct from Brandy in that it is from a very specific region in the West of France- not a million miles away from Bordeaux. It is roughly split into 6 sub regions which all have their own characteristics. The real trick in making a great Cognac comes in blending many Eau de Vie (spirits) together as well as ageing them for exactly the right period of time. When it comes to making an XO that period of time is a minimum of 10 years by law!
