Deau Louis Memory

The colour is dark amber with mahagony reflexes. Fine nose on honey, dried figs, blond tobacco and vanilla. The palate is subtle and elegant with lots of sweet exotic fruits. The finish is medium to long on exotic fruits again, ending on fine spices and elegant oak.

A Cognac of a remarkable softness and balance. Original: Cognac d'une douceur et d'un équilibre remarquable.

What a nice start of the Advent Calendar 2021! This is a super smooth cognac with some spices. It looks great in the glass, and the bottle is beautiful. It is a bit reserved on the nose, it takes time for the aromas to appear. After some time in the glass it opens up and you can find darker tones...

Deau Louis Memory is a blend of 100% Grande Champagne, and the oldest eau-de-vie in the blend dates back to 1916. The initial nose brings some sweet fruit notes.
