Tesseron Lot No. 53 XO Perfection Grande Champagne Cognac

Tesseron Lot No. 53 XO Perfection Grande Champagne Cognac is an exceptional blend of some of Tesseron's finest reserves from the Grande Champagne cru. Matured for more than two generations in Limousin oak casks, this XO combines remarkable maturity and complexity with an elegant, lively character. Its sumptuous profile brings together dried fruit, tobacco, spice, dark chocolate and fresh herbal nuances, complemented by the plum and fig character associated with this celebrated Tesseron expression.

Food Pairing: Foie gras, roasted duck, aged Comté, blue cheese, fig tart, dark chocolate, toasted walnuts, dried fruits, and chocolate truffles.

Tasting Notes: Splendid mahogany in colour, with a rich, opulent and complex character shaped by extended maturation in Limousin oak. Dried fruit and mature wood lead into pepper, spice, dark chocolate and fresh herbal notes, while the finish retains impressive freshness and length.

Nose: Rich and heady, with mature wood, dried fruits and tobacco creating a generous and deeply developed aromatic profile.

Palate: Opulent, rounded and lively, opening with pepper and spice before developing dark chocolate and fresh herbs, with considerable finesse and supple richness.

Finish: Long, complex and refined, retaining freshness alongside lingering spice, chocolate, herbs and mature oak.
