| PALE & DRY X.O. GRANDE CHAMPAGNE COGNAC AC |
| Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
DELAMAIN |
| Medium gold amber colour. Very slightly spicy, fine, caramel-vanilla stick nose with some cedar tinged, autumnal fallen leaf notes. Dry, medium to medium-full bodied, fairly complex, slightly spicy, very faintly sweet, lingering,vanilla tinged finish. Better than when it last appeared in Vintages (***) on September 17, 2011 at $99.95 and was Recommended. |

| Tasting Note: Bold and butterscotchy, this easy-drinking Cognac also has dried fruit and nutty tones, plus a saline touch that's reminiscent of salted caramel. There's a spicy flourish on the relatively dry finish. Delamain notes that it is one of the only Cognac houses to exclude VS and VSOP expressions from its portfolio, 'its range starts where others end, with an X.O.' Score - 95.
