Why Gifted Pour recommends it
A radiant amber cognac with a silky, rounded mouthfeel, this VSOP is a gift that feels polished without asking the recipient to be an expert. The nose opens with ripe apricot, plum and fig over jasmine and violet, then settles into vanilla and caramel. On the palate, dried apricot and raisin meet a gentle cinnamon and nutmeg spice, framed by French oak and a long, sweet finish. Blended from Ugni Blanc eaux-de-vie drawn from Grande and Petite Champagne and aged a minimum of four years, it suits a colleague celebrating a promotion, a host who enjoys an after-dinner pour, or a parent who likes to linger at the table. It is as comfortable in a Sidecar or French 75 as it is neat in a tulip glass, so one bottle can serve a celebration and a quiet evening alike. Add a small box of dark chocolate or dried fruit and nuts, and the gift feels thoughtfully complete.
