Description
An assemblage of 40 to 50-year-old Eaux-de-vie from the Premier Cru region Grande Champagne. The "Extra" Cognac reveals a unique bouquet that combines aromas of coconut, passion fruit, dark chocolate and nutmeg. Its fascinating complexity lies in the successful balance between power and finesse. On the palate, it reveals generous flavours reminiscent of cedar, white pepper and toasted wood. With a lot of harmony, complexity and length on the palate, this rare drop of Cognac will completely convince lovers. Enjoy it pure. By the way, it also goes well with Cuban cigars. At the Wine Spirit Competition 2012, this cognac was awarded a trophy and a gold medal. At the San Francisco World Spirits Competition 2017, it achieved double gold.

Cognac
Cognac: Hochprozentig edel
Das idyllisch am Fluss Charente gelegene Cognac ist eine französische Kleinstadt wie aus dem Bilderbuch. Es liegt im Herzen einer Weinbauregion, deren Rebfläche von fast 80.000 Hektar fast ausschliesslich der Weinbrand-Herstellung dient. In den ausgedehnten Kellern der prestigeträchtigen Cognac-Häusern reifen diese Destillate jahrelang ihrer Genussreife entgegen. Die exklusivsten Cognacs schlummern oft fünfzig oder mehr Jahre in Eichenfässern, bis sie in edlen Karaffen zum Verkauf angeboten werden.

France – Philosophy in a bottle
According to French philosophy, wine should be an expression of the soil and climate. They use the word “terroir” to describe this. Terroir makes every wine different, and many especially good. French wine is regarded worldwide as an expression of cultural perfection. The French believe that humans are responsible for the quality of the berries, the vine variety for their character, and nature for the quantity. This philosophy can be expressed succinctly as: “the truth is the vineyard, not the man.”
