A subtle and well-balanced Cognac from one of the Cognac’s oldest houses. As with all Gautier’s spirits, this VSOP is aged in an 18th century water mill, giving it a distinctive flavour profile. Rush of dried fruit on the nose followed by lovely floral notes. Elegant entry into the mouth with fine display of flavours of biscuit, rich chocolate and warm spice. Warming flow where fruit is very evident as with sweet spice. Good balance and texture. Hints of old leather. Burst of warm spice leads into long, well fruited finish.
