Tasting Notes Profile:

Nose:
Deep and majestic, the nose reveals layers of fig compote, candied orange peel, and plum preserves, evolving into notes of sandalwood, toasted hazelnut, and cigar box. Subtle hints of truffle, vanilla bean, and rancio add gravitas and old-world charm, speaking to decades of gentle aging.

Palate:
Velvety and opulent, the palate unfolds with dried fruits, spiced honey, and dark chocolate ganache, perfectly balanced by nutmeg, leather, and a hint of black tea tannin. The Grande Champagne terroir delivers exceptional structure, while the extended oak aging contributes warmth and depth. The 40% ABV offers a seamless, smooth experience with luxurious mouthfeel.

Finish:
Exceptionally long and refined, the finish lingers with notes of walnut oil, raisin bread, vanilla pod, and a final wisp of cedar smoke and floral incense. A whisper of rancio endures, elegant and haunting.

Overall:
Tesseron Lot No. 53 X.O. Perfection is a masterpiece of aged Cognac—rich, mature, and deeply expressive. With its foundation in 100% Grande Champagne and a pedigree of extended cellar aging, it represents the pinnacle of balance between time, terroir, and craftsmanship.
