Jean-Luc Pasquet Cognac Mini Collection 3x 50ml

Volume: 0.15 litres | Alcohol content: 40% | Chill filtration: No | Colouring: No

Special Features:

The Mini Collection offers a side-by-side exploration of three stages of maturation in the L'Organic range. It contains L'Organic 04, L'Organic 07 and L'Organic 10, aged for at least four, seven and ten years respectively. Each miniature contains 0.05 litres of Cognac at 40%, giving a total of 0.15 litres. All three come from Grande Champagne and are presented in a gift box.

Maturation takes place in French Limousin oak. L'Organic 04 blends four- and five-year-old eaux-de-vie, L'Organic 07 combines seven- and eight-year-old eaux-de-vie, and L'Organic 10 brings together ten- and twelve-year-old eaux-de-vie. The proportion of new casks is 20%, 30% and 35% respectively.

L'Organic 04 has a fresh, fruity character with white grapes, white peach and floral touches. L'Organic 07 combines apricot and vanilla with a silky texture. L'Organic 10 adds floral accents and a peppery finish. The Cognacs are bottled without chill filtration or added colouring.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: L'Organic 07 has aromas of ripe apricot, dried fig, cedarwood and vanilla. A hint of dark chocolate sits in the background, while the overall impression remains fresh and clear. L'Organic 10 combines jasmine and orange blossom with cloves and roasted coffee on the nose.
• Palate: L'Organic 07 begins with a silky, soft texture. Cooked apricots, vanilla and spices combine with a light sweetness and gentle warmth. L'Organic 10 opens smoothly before its woody structure develops. Fruity notes of grapefruit and pear accompany it.
• Finish: L'Organic 07 has a long, dry finish. Subtle cedar and oak notes accompany dried figs and crème brûlée. Freshly ground black pepper remains present throughout the long finish of L'Organic 10.

Distillery/Bottler:

The Jean-Luc Pasquet family estate is located in Grande Champagne. Jean-Luc and Marie-Françoise Pasquet began converting to organic viticulture in 1995, gaining organic certification in 1998. Their son Jean now runs the house. Pasquet uses natural yeasts for fermentation. The wines are distilled twice with their lees in a Charentais pot still.
