A 75cl bottle of Courvoisier from the Erte series. 'Vendanges' refers to the Harvest of the grapes used for the cognac.
Vendanges stands for harvest, but you knew that as well.
Colour: Darker amber.
Nose: Almost smoky at times, and also a little gamy. Bouillon, cooked marrow, cured ham, and then rather bitter chocolate and black raisins. Honey and caramel.
Mouth: ‘Responsive’, with orange jam, honeydew, maple syrup, stewed peaches (always enjoy peaches in Cognac), then indeed a little more Demerara sugar, and even hints of molasses, but that’s all more than all right.
Finish: A pleasant earthiness in the aftertaste.
