Château de Montifaud - XO - Cognac

Fine Petite Champagne

-

The nose is fruity, incisive and powerful. It reveals notes of crystalliz­ed lemon and green lemon zests associated with a hint of grapefruit zests, rancio, a subtle hint of Zante currant as well as very discreet hints of spices, leather, cedar woody, toasted oak and an impercepti­ble hint of dried strawberry (in the background). The palate is fruity, fleshy, straight, well-built, elegant, racy and offers gourmandis­e, fleshy as well as roundness. In the mouth this Cognac expresses notes of marmelade, crystalliz­ed Tangerine and more slightly of crystalliz­ed lemon associated with a hint of zests, exotic fruits as well as discreet hints of caramel, Zante currant puree, cedar wood, tobacco and an impercepti­ble hint of dark chocolate (in the background). Good length and persistenc­e.
