When should I open this bottle of Cognac Tesseron?

Post by JimHow »

This bottle of Cognac Tesseron Lot No. 53 X.O. Perfection was given to me by Alfred Tesseron a few years back following a Pontet Canet tasting in NYC.

Jim,

That is fabulous stuff. It was served at a Pontet Canet dinner last in Chicago that Alfred Tesseron attended. Though I'm sure it will be good for many years, I don't think is any reason to wait.

Cognac does not age after bottling, Jim, so drink up.

Sounds like a good bottle to have on hand in France for a celebatory toast,nightcap etc.
This bottle is as ready as it ever is going to be.

You know Jim...These small morsels of trip information is killing me. I wont be there for BWE15, but am eager to know detailed details of the trip laid out sooner. I know the gurus are all working hard to iron things out. Nonetheless, excitement is excitement... 8-)

I know, I know, CV, believe me, I'm chomping at the bit to divulge the itinerary, but the organizers won't let me do so until the time is right.
Suffice to say, it is pretty tremendous....
