A 10 year old Léopold Gourmel Cognac, matured in un-toasted French oak casks – a characteristic of the range, along with the non-use of chemicals and pesticides when growing the grapes. Fun fact – Léopold Gourmel’s logo is a horse head because the man the house is named after (founder Pierre Voisin’s grandfather) was a horse saddler by profession.

Tasting notes

Nose is richly nutty, lots of crushed almond notes here. Soon grows very fruity with plum and orange. Oak spice develops on the palate, with continued nuttiness from the nose. Apricot appears later on. Enjoyably oily on the finish.
