Choloux XO Bons Bois
Cognac age: XO Cognac
Growth area: Bons Bois
ABV: 40% vol.
Bottle size: 70cl
Additional info: A unique discovery by Max. Ever experienced the instant regret of not going after something (or someone) that caught your eye and you didn’t do anything about it at the time? Like a romantic love story, Max encountered exactly that after wandering the French farmer’s market of Chalais 6 years ago.
Nose: A smell of maturity. The aromas have a certain heft and a touch of rusticity. Dark, sweet, and spice-laden: dried fig, medjool dates, dark honeys, runny maple syrup. Inviting and dessert-like (tarte tatin), but overall darker in profile.
Palate: Presence of dry sweetness: dates, dried figs, medium strength honeys, maple syrup. Palate does not betray the nose. Pleasant mouthfeel, not overly rustic. Soft entry. Some edges stick out towards finish. Easy to sip, accessible alcohol level. A sincere Cognac.
Finish: The rustic side shows itself on finish, which is actually pleasant. Maple and date linger on palate. Short to medium finish.

Domaine Maze Churchill Extra Old Borderies
A soon-to-be-released Cognac, offering you an exclusive first taste before its official debut. 35 year old Borderies...what's not to like!
Cognac age: 35 years old Cognac
Growth area: Borderies
ABV: 43.2% vol.
Grape variety: Ugni Blanc
Additional info: No additives.
This anticipated Cognac will see its release middle of March. Save the date!

Grosperrin Bois Ordinaires N°03-04
A rare gem from Île d'Oléron, shaped by the island’s maritime climate. This Cognac brings a distinctive freshness and minerality, and characterful fruit character.
Cognac age: 20 years old Cognac
Growth area: Bois Ordinaires
ABV: 48.5% vol.
Grape variety: Unknown
Additional info: No additives.
Borderies may be Cognac's smallest cru but Bois Ordinaires is easily the rarest. Cognacs of this age from this cru very rarely make it to market.
Vivid golden color, with orange tints. Complex aromas of roasted pineapple, crushed peaches in syrup, citrus, salted butter caramel, beachy driftwood, and spice. A "solaire" and deep Cognac both light on its feet but showing lots of complex notes. The palate is rich, round, yet fresh. It dances on the palate with the distinctive fruit and spice notes.

Grateaud Special Cuvée

Cognac age: 25 years old Cognac
Growth area: Borderies
ABV: 43.7% vol.
Grape variety: Ugni Blanc
Additional info: No additives.
This Cognac is not released but may in fact see a broader release later in the year; consider yourself an exclusive tester. It shows a slightly different side to Grateaud, and we love that!
Nice amber/copper color. A nose which is warm, comforting, and gently spicy. There is a nice interplay between spiced candied fruits and mature rancio notes. Also quite dessert-y in nature - like sweet pastry dough with a light coat of icing. There is a touch of sweet citrus, which lifts the aromas, and an impression of richness but with a fresh streak running from entry to midpalate to finish.

Many of the cognacs included in the blend have been aged for around 15 years, although some are younger, hence its VSOP classification.

Vallein Tercinier has one of the most consistent lines of Cognacs today. Their blends are resolutely traditional, and their exciting annual Brut de Fut releases turn heads in the Cognac and broader spirits community. Everything they put in bottle seemingly turns to gold.
We asked them what could happen if they played around with two eaux-de-vie blends. The idea was to find two eaux-de-vie that have compatible characteristics and bring them together - an intimate liaison of sorts - to make a Cognac whose sum is more than the parts. Such a bottling would not be coherent in the VT classic range, nor would it make sense in their Brut de Fut line. Hence, the birth of this special edition they’ve chosen to name Liaison Intime.
What’s in the two eaux-de-vie blend?
50% of the blend is a Fins Bois Lot 75 (unreleased)
50% of the blend is the Fins Bois component of the VT Small Batch 46, which is now approaching 40 years old.
The resulting blend, Liaison Intime, is a Fins Bois at an advanced age and a Cognac which showcases their know-how and downright skill to pull off this kind of edition with a Cognac that is as obvious as it is pleasing. A wonderfully complete Liaison!
