MAISON PRUNIER Lot 47 Grande Champagne THROUGH THE GRAPEVINE 5.0

$999.00

Founded in 1769, Maison Prunier is one of the oldest family businesses in the Cognac area. With its own vineyard near Saint-Jean d’Angély, every year it also buys eaux de vie from winegrowers and distillers which it ages in its cellars in the centre of Cognac. This version from the Grande Champagne terroir was distilled in 1947 and reveals astonishing fruity complexity as well as unshakeable strength of character and freshness.

Description

Tasting Notes


Colour : Mahogany.

Nose : Exuberant, stately. The oxidative first nose (brandied cherries, candied apricot, ripe melon) refreshingly develops polish fragrances (beeswax, antique furniture). This medicinal opening (tiger balm) announces impressive presence and vivacity. Allowed to breathe, exotic fruits (mango, guava, persimmon) and citrus fruits (orange, mandarin) nuance the aroma palette with an array of orange shades. Gradually, vine flower and lime blossom fragrances float through the air.

Palate : Svelte, lively. At once powdery (cocoa), fruity (mango, orange, apricot) and infused (bay leaf, sage), the attack is covered in a fine layer of salted butter caramel and a delicious quince jelly. The liquorice mid-palate hands over to new fruits (prune, white peach, greengage plum). At the end of the palette, saffron, honey (lime blossom, heather) and citrus fruit (mandarin) flavours underscore the nobility of the flavour palette’s expression.

Finish : Long, distinguished. The fibrous start of the finish (liquorice stick, ginger) adds its own lots of new fruits (redcurrant, raspberry, bramble, blackcurrant). At the end of the finish, tobacco notes and spices (cinnamon, nutmeg) seep into a particularly delicate wood. The retro-nasal olfaction develops notes of dried fruit and nuts (walnut, date, almond, hazelnut). The empty glass then recreates the atmosphere of a cognac cellar filled with heady aromas (oak, clove, honeysuckle).
