Crème de Cassis de Bourgogne
des “Hautes Côtes de Nuits” |
18% vol.
Burgundy blackcurrant liqueur "Hautes Côtes de Nuits" |
Gold Sigille - Concours International des Eaux de Vies
et Liqueurs - Metz 2006 |
This liqueur owes its "exceptional quality" to two indispensable
factors. First of all, the good "pedigree" of the fruit:
2 traditional varieties - the Royal de Naples, rich in natural sugar
and the Noir de Bourgogne, very perfumed and characteristic
to the exclusion of all others.
But also to the important "origin" of these blackcurrant berries,
which come exclusively from the "Hautes Côtes de Nuits"
at the very heart of the Burgundy region.
"Hautes-Côtes-de-Nuits" Crème de Cassis de Bourgogne
is an attractive brilliant purple with even deeper purple tints.
The nose is highly concentrated pure blackcurrant; the rich
texture is of the smoothest velvet. The many-layered front
of palate gives way immediately to the vibrancy typical aspect
of a fine harmonious blackcurrant liqueur.
