Tasting review:
Eye: Intense mahogany
Nose: Beautiful aromas of nuts, complemented by hints of spice and rancio
Palate: Powerful and round, developing spices and woody tones, leaving candied notes on the finish. These evolve towards leather, undergrowth, and tobacco
The Paintruraud Secrets de Famille Grande Champagne Cognac is something very special indeed. Created to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the house, it's a blend of the oldest and very best eaux-de-vie from deep within the family cellars. And the result is something rather amazing: Powerful, round, with aromas and flavors that take the taster on a roller coaster journey of the senses. Of course, as once would expect from a Cognac of such quality, the rancio is extremely well developed, making this truly a Cognac for the connoisseur.
The presentation is as beautiful as the Cognac it holds. A delightful crystal carafe and wooden presentation cabinet, both made by hand, make this work of art one that deserves pride of place displayed in any liquor collection. The ideal Cognac to celebrate special occasions. And of course, if you're looking for the perfect gift for any lover of fine things, then such a Cognac would certainly be very well received.
Located near Segonzac, in the very heart of Premier Cru Grande Champagne country, Painturaud Cognac has a history that can be traced back to the end of the 1800s. With 23 hectares of vines planted over rolling hillsides, the main crop is composed of the Ugni Blanc grape, with a smattering of Colombard and Montils. They also grow a small amount of red grapes – Merlot and Cabernet Franc – for production of red Pineaux des Charentes.
