Vallein Tercinier Lot 83 Single Cask - Cognac XO

Description

Vallein Tercinier is a totally independent, family-run house which, for over a century and a half, has been distilling and maturing eaux-de-vie of all vintages to offer connoisseurs the finest selection of Cognac blend and Cognac Brut cask. The Cognac selected here is a Brut de fût (i.e. the Cognac has not been reduced, it has been bottled at its natural degree, here 50.4% vol.) exclusively from the Cognac cru, the Petite Champagne. This cru has a similar soil type to Grande Champagne, composed of soft limestone and sometimes "sticky" clays, but with a more marked maritime influence. This is a very fine, light eau de vie, with a fruity/floral bouquet. This Cognac de Petite Champagne "Lot 83" has aged 20 years (barrel N°0228 - bottling 2023) in Limousin oak barrels, then selected by the cellar master for its finesse and complexity, its perfect balance, its aromatic singularity and above all for the gustatory pleasure provided. This is a limited edition, unchill-filtered and natural in color, with only 570 bottles produced. The nose is elegant and gourmand. The intensity of the citrus, yellow fruit (pear, mango) and candied fruit notes already heralds a juicy, velvety palate, underscored by butter and dominated by eXOtic fruit. The finish is warmer, toasty with notes of toasted almonds and walnuts. This Petite Champagne "Lot 83" will be the ideal companion to a fine roast quail with Secs.
