The benchmark of the Moisans estate. A Cognac rich in aromas and beautifully balanced.
The success of this Cognac XO is in its blend of Petite Champagne and Fins Bois eaux-de-vie. The youngest of these eaux-de-vie waited in red barrels for at least 10 years.
The Carafe, designed by Véronique Legaret, is also unique. Its asymmetrical lines give it its energy and elegance, communicating the values of the Moisans Distillery: Rarity and elegance.
Harmonious, rich and generous, Le Grande frere du Deau Very Superior Old Pale has its say with its many years of aging in oak barrels.
In tasting:
The tasting opens with an amber, almost mahogany ball, recalling both the red barrel in which this XO has aged, but also the roof of the workshop built by Roland Bru.
The nose gives us a glimpse of a beautiful aromatic richness, with its floral and fruity universe, with notes of violet, jasmine, lychee and plums.
On the palate, the balance and power of this Cognac are perfectly mastered. First, there are notes of nuts, cocoa beans and coffee. Then, in a second step, come more masculine and musky notes, in particular of leather and cigar box.
This magnificent Deau XO is one of the Distillerie des Moisans’ feats of strength.
Service Tips:
Rich and balanced, this XO is pleasant to taste dry, at room temperature, or accompanied by an ice cube.
