Description

Léopold Gourmel Extra Age des Epices 20 Carats Cognac

Léopold Gourmel Extra Age des Epices 20 Carats is a “Tres Vieux”, very old Cognac. After 25 years of ageing in old French oak casks, the eaux-de-vie is rich in complex aromas including peperry notes of spices, coriander and ginger that prevail with evolving depth. This Extra Cognac is a pure vintage jewel that is sure to appeal to Cognac connoisseurs and enthusiasts alike.

Leopold Gourmel is a Cognac house that began in 1972 when founder Pierre Voisin first began curating Cognac, and as an ode to his grandfather, the brand was subsequently named Leopold Gourmel. Over the years, Leopold Gourmel has come on leaps and bounds and continues the tradition of excellence established by both Olivier Blanc and Nicolas Sinoquet who have strived to produce the very best quality, naturally produced Cognac that the region has to offer.

Presentation of the bottle

Presented in a beautiful decanter and presentation box - this Cognac should not languish in the back of a drink's cabinet, as it deserves centre stage for its elegant bottle shape and accompanying gift box. The design showcases the color of the deep amber Cognac inside, alongside stunning silver accents and the Leopold Gourmel branding. The logo is a fitting finishing touch to all of Leopold Gourmel’s products as the illustration of a horse, hones in on the brand’s values of remaining protective to the land and surrounding nature.

How to enjoy

Enjoy this spicy Cognac after a menu of several dishes, served with rich and sun-filled wines. To appreciate its flavors and entirety, sip Extra Ages des Epices neat or on the rocks. Allow the Cognac to sit in a tulip glass for a few minutes before tasting so that the aromas open up to their fullest potential.

About Leopold Gourmel Cognac

This cognac house has always relied on natural processes. From growing the grapes to picking, maturing, distilling, aging and bottling them, Gourmel cognac is free of any chemicals, pesticides or additives to enhance color in respect of nature and the final product. The philosophy of the company is to concentrate on quality not quantity, which means that one year the outcome may be higher than in others. This is further shown by the radical decision to produce only pure vintage cognacs, so there is no blending of different years in order to create VS, VSOP or XO cognacs for instance. To go with this authentic approach, the design of Gourmel is simple and modern.
