EXCEPTION VERY RARE COGNAC, WHOSE IMPRESSIVE AROMATIC RICHNESS ENHANCED BY NUANCES OF RANCIO OFFERS AN EXCEPTIONAL COMPLEXITY. OLFACTORY NOTES The nose is rich, complex, powerful and long at the same time, with a nice note of rancio. Spicy notes of cinnamon, vanilla, delicate woody nuances of old oak, cigar box and undergrowth. Beautiful fruity and candied nuance. An astonishing freshness for its great age. TASTING NOTES Exception is a very rare cognac, whose aromatic richness is enhanced by nuances of tertiary notes. A cognac that will reveal a wide aromatic palette throughout the tasting. The palate is delicate and lively. The complexity of the rancios and the exoticism of the fruit perceived on the nose are quickly revealed. Warmer aromas of nuts and prunes, coffee beans and cocoa are coming smoothly. Complex and impressive length in the mouth. At the start of its ageing, this cognac undergoes a rapid passage in new barrels to keep the natural aromatics of the eaux-de-vie. It will then be transferred to an old barrel to continue its development in a humid cellar to promote its roundness and accentuate the rancios. This blend is a mix of eaux-de-vie with and without lees, which comes from the terroirs of Petite and Grande Champagne only, aged between 40 and 60 years old. With its ABV of 43%, the reduction of eaux-de-vie in a natural way is favored. This high degree offers a more accomplished taste discovery as well as a better perception of aromas. This cognac contains no additives, sugar or caramel. Only a slight filtration is carried out to preserve its aromatic qualities as much as possible.

RÉSERVE ARISTIDE A PURE ODE TO GRANDE CHAMPAGNE. FIVE DECADES OF SLOW AGING THAT TAKE YOU ON AN UNFORGETTABLE AROMATIC AND SENSORY JOURNEY OLFACTORY NOTES An incredible palette of aromas emerges in several successive waves. Spices, cooked peaches, black pepper, liquorice, fig, nutmeg, clove, honey, violet and marzipan. TASTING NOTES Impressive length in the mouth and very long finish. This blend is a mix of more than 50 years old eaux-de-vie with and without lees, sourced only from the most prestigious terroir of Grande Champagne. The perfect balance of finesse and elegance. It is “Brut de fût” at 50% volume. A very rare ecstasy. The color is a beautiful dark mahogany gloss with amber highlights. An astonishing bouquet of aromas: touches of white flowers between acacia honey, apple and peach blossom, cinnamon, pear and violet on the first attack followed by more assertive aromas such as spices (grey and black pepper), liquorice, nutmeg, candied fig, clove with a strong finish of leather and coffee/cocoa variations. The perfect nectar to share with old time friends after a meal ending with a chocolate dessert or coffee éclairs and a Darjeeling tea (flavored with bergamot?) or a grand cru coffee with a few swirls of Montecristo or Cohiba. Réserve Aristide is a meditation cognac with a very broad aromatic structure. Take your time to fully enjoy it and to reveal itself completely. At the start of its ageing, the eaux-de-vie pass quickly through new barrels to preserve their natural aromatics. They will then be removed in an old barrel to continue their aging in a humid cellar, which promotes roundness and accentuates the notes of rancios. With its ABV of 50%, the reduction of eaux-de-vie is favored in a natural way. This high degree provides a more accomplished taste experience as well as a better perception of aromas. This cognac contains no additives, sugar, or caramel. Only light filtration is carried out to preserve its aromatic qualities as much as possible.
