This VS Cognac is distilled from wines of the Cognac region in a single distillery and aged in French oak casks for at least 30 months. Couvignac distills wines from three of the major crus in the Cognac region to obtain a robust, fruit forward, rich distillate. Maturation takes place in their cellars with 15% new barrels and the rest used cognac barrels. Casks are carefully selected for 36 months dry oak with large grains.
Couvignac VS Cognac Tasting Note
Nose: Nice amber, copper glints, limpid and shiny. Fruit forward (pear, raisins, dry apricot), followed by a very distinct bourbon vanilla flavor and a delicate finish starring toasted oak, light smoky notes.
Palate: Very round, soft palate, with a delicate mix of fresh grapes, winy notes and floral bouquet.
Finish: Great finish, mixing typical French oak notes with an already oxidative prune note
