The nose is classic Cognac, redolent with golden raisins and some brown sugar, gingerbread and some red apple notes. The Sauternes influence isn’t immediately obvious, though a floral note is evident. The palate is engaging, though there’s a gritty, brambly element here that belies considerable youth in the blend. It’s unfortunate, because otherwise the Cognac is quite lively and rounded, with notes of apples and pears, nutmeg, and a layered, honey-like finish that is probably the clearest evidence of the Sauternes cask. The underbrush-and-oak character is never far from sight, however, and it leaves the finish a bit more muddied than it should be. For 60 bucks, though, it’ll do.
