Grosperrin ‘Ile d’Oléron’ Bois Ordinaire Number 90. Cognac
In the glass the color is light amber with gold highlights. The nose is floral, with a hint of iris, along with gentle notes of toffee, Mirabelle plum, chocolate, and a touch of nougat. On the palate the spirit is medium-bodied with bright acids and a flavor set that includes touches of cherry and damson plums along with a salty character that nods to the spirit’s origin. Enjoy!
While Cognacs from the central crus are widely available for export, very little is ever seen abroad from the outerlying crus. Guillem told Charles that this 1990 cask was bought from a small farmer long retired in Saint-Pierre-d’Oléron. This farmer had quite humid cellars which led the alcohol level to drop at an accelerated rate. In addition to the high angel’s share, the distillate was aged in old oak which ensured a lighter color to the resulting spirit. After the barrels were purchased from the farmer, they were aged for several more years at the Grosperrin headquarters. After conferring with Charles, this run of bottles was imported specifically D&M. This cognac is probably unlike any you have ever tasted before: we’re happy to expose you to it. Michael Kennel, D&M
