Product details
Tesseron Cognac Lot N°29 XO Exception is a distinguished expression from the esteemed House of Tesseron, a family-owned cognac producer renowned for its dedication to crafting exceptional and rare cognacs. Established in 1905 by Abel Tesseron, the house has meticulously curated one of the most extensive collections of aged eaux-de-vie, particularly from the Grande Champagne region. Lot N°29 XO Exception is a testament to this legacy, blending Ugni Blanc, Folle Blanche, and Colombard grapes, with components aged for more than three generations in Limousin oak casks. This prolonged maturation imparts a depth and complexity that is both rare and captivating.
Upon pouring, this cognac reveals a lustrous topaz hue, hinting at its rich character. The nose is an intricate tapestry of aromas, featuring heady notes of leather, honey, figs, plums, and exotic fruits intertwined with subtle oak nuances. On the palate, it offers a supremely elegant experience, combining macerated dried fruits with delicate hints of mocha and cocoa, all refreshed by floral undertones. The finish is exceptionally well-balanced and complex, with marmalade notes emerging on a persistent, stylish conclusion. This exquisite cognac pairs beautifully with fine desserts such as dark chocolate truffles or a classic tarte Tatin, enhancing the indulgent flavors and providing a harmonious end to a gourmet meal.
