Branson VSOP provides the purest expression of Grande Champagne Cognac. Created from Eaux-de-Vie grown in the premier terroir of the region, Grande Champagne, this Cognac represents the most exclusive and sublime expression of VSOP.
Rich and ripe yet super-fresh bouquet offers huge complexity and dimension with fruit, mineral, earth and wood in equal measure. Pungent and savory with deep red and black fruits lifted on gobs of toasty french oak. This is the modern, new world style melded beautifully with classic BDX...densely concentrated yet super sexy on the palate with real freshness and verve playing over the robust tannins the net effect of which is excellent dimension and complexity and true elegance.
Clos de la Vieille Eglise, the tiny property estate of Jean-Louis and Benoît Trocard, has an opulent bouquet with layers of ripe cassis and blueberry fruit, just showing a little more alcohol than its Pomerol peers. The palate is ripe and generous on the entry. I was expecting it to spill over into something overdone... but no. It is actually very elegant and harmonious with great depth and very fine persistence.
Color: A bright dark wine shot through with highlights.Nose: The noticeable red fruit in the nose is accompanied by aromas of cinnamon and spice.Mouth: Full of jammy red fruit (strawberry), rounded and well-balanced and finishes on notes of spice (vanilla, pepper). The youthful tannins mean it will last quite a while.
A wine that has acquired an increasingly well-defined identity over the years and that in 2019, also on the strength of a spectacular harvest and the confirmation of the addition of Cabernet Franc in the blend, undoubtedly marks its territorial connotation. It is the purest expression of the Val di Cornia terroir and its specific agronomic identity, which brings two different micro-terroirs into the glass: calcareous soils, rich in iron, sodium and magnesium on the one hand, and micro-elements, combined with the deep clay layer, on the other.
