Abecassis Cognac VSOP Grande Champagne 70cl Lafran-Veyrolles A hand blown glass vacuumGolden in colour with deep amber glints, this ABK6 VSOP Grande Champagne reveals a magnificent complexity. The nose opens with a delicate perfume of sweet spice, with a lot of finesse brought by the freshness of its mentholated notes. The mouth offers an elegant attack evolving on subtle woody notes carried by very silky tannins. Balancing spices and dried fruits, the final reveal is a great mineral freshness already present on the nose.
