Otard XO Gold Cognac

VISUAL: Amber, red and golden colours

NOSE: Complex bouquet with mushrooms, cheese, hazelnut, leather, hints of honey.  Touch of floral and violet aromas

PALATE: Leather, tobacco, fine honey and hazelnut

FINISH: Good length with honey, tobacco and spices

The Otard XO Gold draws its personality from a blend of Grande Champagne, Borderies and Fins Bois; Grande Champagne for its complexity, Borderies for its floral touch and Fins Bois for its vigour.  The Otard XO Gold is aged for many years to give its mature complexities.

The Otard XO Gold was awarded Silver Medal at the International Wine & Spirit Competition with Courvoisier XO claiming Gold Medal and Martell XO receiving Bronze Medal in the Cognac XO category.
