H By Hine V.S.O.P
Taste Profile: Brilliant amber colour, the nose is expressive yet discreet, with notes of iris, fresh apricot, acacia and white pepper. The palate is rather fruity, with a burst of vanilla. The floral notes are bright, lending a lifting edge to the finish.
Grape: Ugni Blanc
Serving Tips: Lively and elegant, this VSOP is great served on its own, but also the ideal ingredient for cocktails and mixed drinks. Try it with a dash of cold tonic, cider or ginger ale, garnished with a twist of lime, cucumber or rosemary.
About this Cognac: This young and floral Cognac is the flagship release from famed producer Hine. The H by Hine VSOP Cognac is a blend of over 15 different eaux-de-vie sourced from Grande and Petite Champagne, aged for a minimum of four years. The high humidity environment of the Hine cellars - located by the River Charente - slows down evaporation to create a more mellow and refined Cognac.
