WHAT'S A VINTAGE COGNAC ?

Marketing : a « Vintage » Cognac means compliance with certain very strict regulations in terms of quality control:

-The Cognac must be aged in the general «ORECO» state stores or in specific « Vintage » cellars. To which entrance is forbidden unless it’s accompanied by a representative of the Cognac Trade Bureau (BNIC).

- If a specific « Vintage » cellar is used, all the operations to be performed on the Cognac (collection of samples, consolidation of batches, etc.) must be carried out in the presence of that representative.

When a Cognac carries a Vintage, consumer can be sure that the product consists of 100% of Cognac from the year shown on the bottle.
Despite this complicated procedure, that must be scrupulously observed, we have chosen to enable our customers to benefit from certain exceptional batches that we have meticulously selected.

TASTING COMMENTS :

Eye : Yellow old gold and mahogany color with gold highlights.

The nose is round, fruity with a nice note of wood, lys, lime and medlar. The move towards spicy and vanilla is sweet and melted.

On the palate : Beautiful structure that expresses a great flexibility in attack. Nutty notes, iris, vanilla and white fruit on the palate express themselves softly.

Final : The notes of white fruits and floral persist even in retro-olfaction. A beautiful persistence and structure. An elegant and delicate Cognac.

TASTING SUGGESTIONS :

At the end of the meal neat at about 20°C.
