Almond paste and nougat lend a softer sweetness to the bouquet, while dried flowers add delicacy beneath the darker notes. Its copper-flecked mahogany colour hints at the patient maturation behind this richly expressive Grande Champagne Cognac.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBroad and velvety on the palate, it carries its flavours with composure, allowing nutty richness, dried fruit and gentle oak spice to unfold gradually.
