Lheraud Petite Champagne 1990 Cask Sample #19

Nose: An elegant funk jazz piano solo. Forest strawberries, cranberry relish. Medjool dates

Palate: Strawberry and black pepper syrup, a beautiful strong layer of oak that is the showpiece but doesn’t overwhelm. This is definitely yum

Rating: 8 / 10 – these are so absurdly good. Elegant on the nose and powerful on the palate. It’s like drinking 1993 glendronachs for me. Fruit sherry notes and oak. Less fruity than the traditional cognac drinker would probably prefer and just oaky enough to make the armagnac and americans swoon.
