2009 Hine Single Cask #TJ09016 Lot 2712 Lignières-Sonneville Cognac

At Hine, the French oak casks used to age our eaux-de-vie are selected with a view to showcasing their aromatic profile. The aim is not to mask the flavours with dominant woody tones, but to enhance them as part of a delicate exchange between the eau-de-vie and oak staves...as the years pass, the cognac takes on a radiant amber hue and, while always maintaining the fruit as its primary aroma, unleashes hints of walnut, freshly toasted bread and blonde tobacco.
