TASTING NOTES – COGNAC LEYRAT XO VIEILLE RESERVE

Nose

Dried fruits, mainly raisins and plums. Then it delivers vanilla and red fruits, together with floral hints. A marzipan note completes the aromatic profile.

Palate

Honey and a touch of spices (mainly white pepper). Then it exhibits lemon peel. The pepper gets more and more intense.

Finish

Medium persistency. It develops a riot of white pepper and honey.

Overall, the Leyrat XO Vieille Reserve is a very round and harmonious Cognac. The long aging is perceivable and the flavor profile is well structured and deep, equipped with a good complexity.
