Dobbé – XO – EXTRA – Cognac

The nose is aromatic, a bit incisive and offers a small intensity as well as power. It reveals notes of dried zests, dried lemon, dried mandarin and slight notes of dried kumquat associated with a hint of peach blossom, cedar, tobacco as well as a very discreet hint of spices, clove and cuben pepper. The palate is fruity, well-balanced and offers a slight mineral frame, a slight suavity, a slight freshness (in the background) as well as power. In the mouth this Cognac expresses notes of crystallized lemon, dried zests and dried citrus associated with small notes of brugnon compote, crushed pear, quince, caramelization as well as a discreet hint of Cuben pepper and a very discreet hint of vanilla on the finish. Good length. The finish is a bit powerful.
