Meukow – XO – Grande Champagne, Cognac

The nose is aromatic, elegant, precise and well defined. It reveals notes of candied orange, cigar and small notes of dried mandarin, dried zests, candied white fruits associated with a hint of dried flowers as well as small touches of cedar and slight hints of rancio. The palate is fruity, well-balanced and offers a slight unctuosity, a small fatness, a slight fleshiness, a good definition, a slight tension as well as a good guideline. On the palate, this Cognac expresses notes of candied lemon, crystallized mandarin, caramel pear, caramel peach and slight notes of a touch of brioche, candied mirabelle associated with small touches of vanilla, dried flowers, crème brulee, pâtisseries, cardamom and a discreet hint of cigar. Good length.
