Color: A deep and inviting hue that hints at the richness within.

Nose: A complex and deep bouquet opens with vanilla and spicy ginger, evolving to waxy and lemony notes. As it breathes, the aroma palette expands to honey, floral notes like broom and mimosa, and exotic fruits such as pineapple and passion fruit, with a subtle layer of tar adding depth.

Palate: Fresh and svelte, mirroring the nose with exotic fruits like banana and pineapple, alongside candied ginger and Emery cloth. Mid-palate, white grapes release invigorating juices, transitioning to a mouth-watering vanilla richness.

Finish: Long and full-bodied, the finish starts with a series of herbal sequences including vine leaf, bay leaf, and lime blossom. The dynamic and tangy after-taste is exotically accented with passion fruit, culminating in an extremely delicate velvety texture.

Maison Prunier 'Lot N° 19.14' (40.45%, La Maison du Whisky, Through the Grapevine, Borderies, 2023)

by Serge Valentin

27 Dec 2023

This incredible cognac aged for 82 years in a damp cellar (the best, though aren't all cellars damp these days with the flooding?), and then was stored in demi-johns in 1996 before being bottled this year.
