THE SWEETNESS OF GOLDEN COCK…
Pineau des Charentes “Le Coq d’Or”
“Delicious Golden Cock” as Risqué refers to this lovely pleasure is the product of a centuries old accident. An “Erreur de destin”… a mistake of destiny… when a cellar boy accidentally added Cognac to unfermented grape must (juice) instead of already
fermented wine. Thus was born… this now renowned shared pleasure of legendary proportion. Although not largely know in the US… the more refined European gentry is quite aware of this sophisticated little gem as an aperitif. This was a lovely shared delicacy from a favorite LUSH who returned with it from his recent adventures.
Risqué was quite smitten by its golden honey color. The nose is succulent orange blossom and rich wild honey. The taste follows suit with a seductive and lightly sweet essence of more wild honey and subtle lingering woody vanilla finish. Simply elegant!!!
Risqué adores a seductive and delicious cock… and this is nothing short of exactly that… sweet, delicious golden cock! ENJOY!
