Tasting review
Clear rancio in this Hors d'Age blend of cognac. A nice mahognay colour, some leather and smoke notes. A somewhat unusual taste for a Grande Champagne cognac thanks to the use of Folle Blanche grapes.
Description
Cognac Couprie Hors D'Age Cognac is a rich, expertly blended cognac that's been distilled in a traditional generations-old 10 hectollitre pot still. It was then aged in Limousin oak barrels in the calm, dark, humid cellars of the house of Couprie.
The cognac epitomises the expertise and care lavished upon it by several generations. It reflects the best use of oak to reveal and highlight its beautiful mahogony color and an intense rancio aroma.
The Folle Blanche grapes used to create this Hors d'Age are what gives the cognac its unique character. But nonetheless, this is a Grande Champagne, top quality beauty, with the 'leather and cigar box aromas' so typical of fine, old cognac.
Comes in a wooden presentation box.

About Couprie Cognac
When Pierre Couprie received the distillation permit in 1750, he introduced a long history for the Couprie family. Their estate in Ambleville in the Grande Champagne has been the home to the cognac house sine generations. Like many smaller producers, Couprie Cognac uses only its own wine production to ensure and control the highest quality of their eaux-de-vie. Courpie also produces Pineau des Charentes and liqueurs to broaden their product range.

Tasting review by Jacques Denis: A range of complex woody and fruity flavors - wood vanilla. Intense and elegeant, this congac has a long and unique finish.
Eye: A dark robe with shades that shimmer in the light.
Nose: Delicate, yet plenty of power. A balance that is rarely found. Notes of tobacco, leather and cinnamon appear, alongside candied fruit. It is very fine, yet lacking weakness.
Palate: A long, neverending finale which is...
Tasting notes: The nose epitomises cognac that has been aged for a prolonged period with a plethora of spicey and cigar-box aromas. With time, oakier notes appear and a damp leafy humus with a hint of forest mushroom
