Description
The Esteve Selection Coup de Coeur Cognac is an excellent XO quality blend from this hands-on cognac house. Created from eaux-de-vies solely from the Petite Champagne terroir, each has been aged for a minimum of 20 years.
The result is a cognac that seduces with floral (especially jasmine) aromas, and continues with a delicate, light, and subtle palate. Of course, such a creation has naturally been recognised with many awards. These include the following:
2002 – Silver at the Saveurs de Poitou-Charentes
2003 – Silver at the Concours Général Agricole de Paris
2003 – Gold at the Concours des Vignerons Indépendants de France

On the nose this cognac reveals a unique bouquet of flowers, a rich structure of vanilla. On the palate: Some dark brioche, orange fruit and dark, mature fruit. The finish is long and consistent.
Eye: Amber highlights.
Nose: A fruity dominance, with nutty almonds, dried fruit, canned fruit and citrus fruit. Spices include cinnamon and vanilla and there are notes of honey, toffee, rancio notes, chocolate, dried grass and tobacco.
Palate: Full and round, dried fruit, spices,...
This Fins Bois XO has aromatic complexity of exotic fruits and citrus. You may notice some vanilla as well . Pleasant and well-typed.
