Moyet Tres Vieux Cognac des Borderies 40%

Moyet Tres Vieux Cognac des Borderies 40%

Here you’ve got a venerable blend (100% Borderies of course) with oldies from 1920 to 1950. 

Colour: Mahogany, amber lights. Regular medium tears.

Nose: Rancio bomb. Mushroom risotto, goat cheese. Is it Heritage Rene Riviere’s pineau?! Farm scents. Binary profile.

Mouth: Extra-oily texture. Monolith. Rancioted goat cheese notes. Peppery aftertaste. A bit unbalanced and a tad too oaky, but very aromatic, especially with nice licorice and white pepper aromas. You also get a great dash of pecorino. 

Last Notes: Even with air it stays very rancioted, almost unreadable. Thin and sugary too.

Well, I have to admit that I was expecting a bit more of this one. Way too unbalanced to score higher than 89. 

Whole tasting session

88+/100
