Prunier XO Grande Champagne Cognac

Prunier XO Très Vieille Grande Champagne Cognac stands as a pinnacle of excellence within the world of cognac, crafted exclusively from grapes harvested from the esteemed Grande Champagne cru of the Cognac region. Renowned for its chalky soils, this cru yields grapes of unparalleled quality, resulting in cognacs of exceptional refinement and complexity.

The journey begins with the careful pressing and fermentation of the harvested grapes, followed by double distillation in traditional copper stills, a process that imbues the spirit with depth and character.

Matured for a minimum of 20 years, with an average age of 45 years and some portions reaching up to 50 years, this cognac undergoes a prolonged aging process that lends it a bold and robust flavor profile. Aromas of citrus and vanilla greet the senses, leading to a palate rich with notes of candied oranges, honeyed oak, and caramel. The finish is long and indulgent, with a subtle sweetness complemented by hints of woody spices, vanilla, rancio, and stone fruits.

Recognized for its excellence, Prunier XO Très Vieille Grande Champagne Cognac earned a remarkable score of 97 points from Wine Enthusiast, securing its place as the #1 cognac in 2013. It stands as a testament to the mastery and dedication of the artisans behind its creation, offering a truly unforgettable tasting experience for discerning connoisseurs.
