The "Prestige" is the regular "Cohete", except aged in 100% new French oak. This lends a tinge of roasted coffee grinds to the nose. Some tasters would perhaps find the new oak has lent more "grip" and mouth feel. We view that as simply a matter of preference. One barrel (close to 25 cases) was made.

Suggested presentation: We propose the same serving suggestions as with the regular "Cohete"; decanting and use of a larger, more bowl shaped glass with service just a little above "cellar temperature" (62 degrees F) is recommended.
