Exception Fine Champagne Cognac Audry

The oldest and finest of Audry’s blended line of Cognac, the Audry Exception Cognac is a stunning blend of Grande and Petite Champagne eaux-de-vie. As a Hors-d’Age Cognac, this is a fantastic example of Audry’s ability to handpick and blend their oldest stocks from the cellar. It's aged between 40 and 60 years, and is extraordinarily rare. Enjoy a fruity and rich Exception Cognac with an exceptional rancio that exhibits all of the best characteristics of a mature Fine Champagne treasure: "I'm delighted by the most coveted virtue of all great Cognac; the rancio, this precious gift comes as a result of the oxidation process and a very long ageing period." explains Paul Pacult from Audry.

This Cognac house prides itself on producing high quality, small batches of fine Cognac, releasing limited numbers per year. The Fine Champagne crus, made up of the Grande and Petite Champagne are highly sought after due to the high quality Cognac that they produce. Audry have gained a reputation for carefully constructing incredible blends between the two terroirs. Due to the high chalk soil and limestone subsoil, the eaux-de-vie from this region are particularly refined. The soil drains easily, and the vines remain consistently hydrated thanks to millions of years of fossilization and its unique maritime climate. That combined with its optimal absorption of sunlight located on the hillside of the Cognac region makes for a particular finesse.
