Detailed Description
While the majority of releases from the Tesseron Cognac range are XO expressions, they’ve tried something a little different with their Composition – it’s their first Cognac that isn’t an XO! However, that doesn’t mean they’ve simply pushed a half-baked expression out the door and called it good. Tesseron Composition is made with eaux-de-vie from the Grande and Petite Champagne regions, and proffers fantastic richness with wafts of floral elegance to back it up.
Tesseron Composition Cognac Tasting Notes
Nose: Aromas of elegant white flowers and plum complemented by spicy autumn fruits.
Palate: Rich and rounded with complex fruits, hints of chocolate, cinnamon, and prune.
Finish: Long and mouth-watering.
Distillery Information
Cognac Tesseron specializes, as this slogan suggests, in high-end cognacs. As their marketing slogan suggests, they only produce “XO and Beyond”, so cognacs from the XO age onwards. From their ancestral home Domaine Tesseron in Châteauneuf-sur-Charente, which lies between Cognac and Angoulême, the Tesseron family traditionally used to sell its eaux-de-vie to the large cognac houses. But in 2003 they decided to release a range under their own family name. The Tesserons are also active in wine production, owning Château Pontet-Canet – a Pauillac classified property producing Grand Cru Classé Bordeaux wine.
