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

A unique taste, strong but delicate at the same time. Well balanced.

A great colour, orange blossom on the nose, some good hints of spices, flowers, and a very long finish. A high end cognac.

Tasting review by Lheraud Cognac:
Full-bodied, complex and opulent, expressing a wide range of notes, with hints of vanilla, roasted coffee beans and hazelnuts. A fine balance and a long finish.
Eye: Deep, opulent, glistening with diamante blond hues
Nose: Light and musky, enjoy aromas of gingerbread, saffron, and honey, and tones of vanilla and fresh cranberries.
Palate: Truly full bodied with a wonderful harmonious crescendo. Aftertaste is exceptionally long
Eye: Deep, aged color
Nose: Powerful, with woody and spicy aromas
Palate: Complex yet round, with notes of oak and leather combining with slightly sweet notes of flower and fruit. Peppery, with good rancio. A rather masculine XO
