Courvoisier – L’Essence de Courvoisier – Cognac

The nose is elegant, racy and offers power, complexity as well as a multi-layer side and a small dry side. It reveals notes of dry yellow grape, crystallized quince, small notes of candied lemon associated with touches of caramelized vine peach as well as a small touch of lychee, lemon flower, discreet hints of tobacco, nutmeg, dry hazelnut, acacia and an imperceptible hint of graphite (in the background). The palate is fruity and offers juiciness, gourmandize, a certain generosity as well as a fine sugariness, tension, a beautiful finesse of the grain and a fine straightness. On the palate this Cognac expresses notes of caramel peach, caramel pear, small notes crystallized lemon associated with touches of crystallized mandarine as well as fine hints of tobacco, lychee, dry flowers, discreet hints of brioche, grilled cocoa and grilled oak. A dry sensation on the finish.
