It may be a trick of the light or just the way the photos of the bottle were taken but the colour looks extremely dark – the sign of being too long in the wood or the use of too much new wood for too long?

True. It’s even a bit too dark. Isn’t Salignac said to be adding caramel to some of their cognacs anyway?

On the other hand, perhaps it’s just the perspective.
