Wine Enthusiast 93 points - The bouquet features multilayered scents of baked pear/apple pastry, walnut, roasted chestnut and maple. The palate entry is firm, semisweet, oaky, and spicy; the midpalate is well-balanced, sweet, oaky and compellingly baked, with finishing touches of rancio, hard cheese and caramel. Finishes elegantly and lushly, with final parting tastes of pepper and brown sugar..April/2007 A paradox of aromas– the surprisingly spicy notes softened by perfumes of dried rose petals, and the power of its headier notes, voluptuous and tempting. Enhanced by a silky texture for a delightful gourmet and enveloping tasting experience. An unanimously desirable cognac, a first step onto the ultra-prestige. Created in 1979 by Maurice Fillioux, Hennessy Paradis is blended from precious eaux-de-vie with round and sensual character and housed in a crystalline glass decanter. Eaux-de-vie destined for use in Hennessy Paradis are identified from the very beginning and ultimately fused together to create a harmonious balance, like a symphony. Hennessy is the best-selling cognac in the world and US run by Hennessy family (8 generations) & Fillioux family master blenders (7 generations). Blended using eaux-de-vie from Cognac’s top 4 regions. Each batch of wine is double-distilled to achieve the most flavorful, elegant eaux-de-vie possible. Hennessy also possesses the finest selection of old eaux-de-vie in the world.
