MAXIME TRIJOL VSOP GRANDE CHAMPAGNE

Made exclusively with Grande Champagne eaux-de-vie - the finest cru in the Cognac region. This includes a good amount of cognacs aged for between 10 and 20 years, and the average age is rumoured to be as much as 15 years! Maxime Trijol's VSOP Grande Champagne was awarded the Brandy Trophy at the 2003 International Spirits Challenge.

Nose: Vanilla, dried fruit and a little apricot.

Palate: Full-bodied and rich, with orchard fruit, ripe peaches and refined oak.

Finish: Baking spice prickles away for a while.
