Chateau D'Orignac XO Cognac Grand Cru Single Estate

This small family estate of some 20 hectares produces exceptional eaux de vie from Ugni Blanc and Colombard. This exceptionall blend is made of several cognacs with the youngest being 10 years old, but many are very much older. The colour is copper with golden tints ; it offers a powerful aromatic palate, with subtle hints of spices, leather, raisins and prunes. The mouth is perfectly balanced with a round and soft structure and resents a very long and distinguished finish with the noble rancio characteristic of the old cognac. Intense and elegant this Single Estate Grand Cru Cognac XO reflects all the identity of this exceptional terroir. Taste at room temperature. It is perfect to end up a festive meal in a refined and exceptional fashion.
