- Description
- Normandin-Mercier's très vieille Cognac hails from Grande Champagne, the region's most prestigious terroir, and is bottled at 40% ABV with a richly amber colour indicating extended aging. The complex palate balances rose florality with tobacco, honey, and dried fruit notes, creating a sophisticated and layered expression. The extended barrel time rounds the spirit into a smooth, contemplative dram. Perfect for sipping neat after dinner or as a benchmark for Grande Champagne character.
