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.
