Cardenal Mendoza Brandy Solera Gran Reserva

No wallflower, this one. The intensity of the bouquet starts right with the pour as waves of prunes and raisins rise from the glass; air contact stirs deeper aromas, most notably orange rind, peppermint and roasted nuts. This rich, heavyweight brandy features layers of flavor, including cocoa, toffee, caramel, cream Sherry and oaky vanilla. Finishes as large and robust as it started. (12/2002)
K&L Notes

There is no better way to spend a winter evening than sipping on a nice glass of brandy. Cardinal Mendoza Brandy is produced in Jérez, Spain. Founded in 1781, Cardinal Mendoza is one of the best selling Jérez brandies in the world. Ages 15 to 17 years, this brandy is full of rich flavors that fill your mouth with dried raisins and figs. Very smooth and velvety that will warm any brandy lover's heart.
