Hardy - Noces d’Argent

Cognac - Fine Champagne

The nose is fine, fruity, gourmand, elegant and offers power as well as deepness. It reveals notes of candied peach, candied Tangerine zests and slight touches of apple in syrup, quenelle/exotic fruits associated with

touches of rancio, caramel, cigare as well as a subtle hint of violet, grilled oak and gray pepper. The palate is fruity, well-balanced, fat, slightly suave, nicely elegant, a bit aerial and offers fleshy, a very fine juiciness, a slight power (full of balance) as well as a very discreet acid frame (in the background). In the mouth this Cognac expresses notes of candied Tangerine, candied pear and slight notes of dried orange zests, apple in syrup, candied pear associated with touches of pâtisseries, caramel as well as a subtle hint of black tea/flowers, grilled oak, roasting almond and chocolate. Good length.
