A Très Vieux from Jean Fillioux, this cognac was recommended by Cuisine et Vins de France in January of 2007.
The nose is rich and fruity. There are notes of candied peels, berry fruits, orchard fruits, banana, oak, spice, honey and a little Madeira. The palate is big-bodied and rich with orchard fruits, marmalade, honey and spice. The finish is long and rich with oak and spice.

I found this lacking in 'moreishness'. However, it did pique my interest in trying other cognacs from this house, as it was an artisan style brandy rather than a boring 'big four' type.
