Coutanseaux Aine XXO Grande Champagne Cognac is an exceptional expression from the prestigious Grande Champagne Premier Cru, crafted exclusively from Ugni Blanc. Built around extensively matured eaux-de-vie, this XXO displays remarkable concentration and aromatic richness, combining mature fruit, roasted character, spice, tobacco and silky oak in a dense yet harmonious style. Its distinctive faceted decanter pays tribute to the house's historic cooperage heritage.
Food Pairing: Roasted game with orange sauce, duck breast, aged Comte, roasted walnuts, dried figs, dark chocolate, coffee desserts, and rich fruit cake. The producer specifically recommends game with orange for this XXO.
Tasting Notes: Deep amber with orange reflections, displaying considerable aromatic intensity and a dense, generous structure. Mature fruit, roasted wood, spice, coffee, tobacco and leather combine with silky tannins and a smooth, persistent character.
Nose: Coffee, seasoned wood and vanilla initially, opening with aeration to reveal prune, plum, exotic fruit and tobacco.
Palate: Dense and expansive with pronounced woody, toasted and spicy notes, developing coffee, licorice, tobacco, fig and leather alongside silky tannins.
Finish: Smooth, rich and persistent, with lingering roasted wood, coffee, spice, tobacco and mature fruit.
Serve: Best enjoyed neat in a tulip-shaped Cognac glass, allowing time for the mature aromas to develop.
