Description
The Chollet Grande Champagne Altesse XO Extra Cognac is a very special blend indeed. A pure Grande Champagne delight, this fruity, round, elegant offering thrills in every aspect. Firstly, the presentation is delightful. It comes in a stylish, heavy decanter that looks wonderful displayed on a cabinet, and certainly makes for an eye-catching display when serving.
And then, of course, there's the Cognac itself; certainly is a a great example of why the chalky soils of the Grande Champagne terroir is referred to as the 'premier cru' of the region. Complex, yet balanced. Powerful, yet harmonious. This is a Cognac to enjoy neat, as a digestif, and in the very best of company. And a tip from the cellar master of Chollet Cognac: "Once consumed, keep your tulip glass in your hands and smell it from time to time. The scent of this princess will continue to seduce you".

About Chollet Cognac
The house of Chollet Cognac might have a shorter history than some in the region, but it's a fascinating one. In addition, the stor just goes to show what can be achieved if you truly want to follow your passion. The hard work that the founders of Chollet Cognac undertook in 1952 is tantamount to the success of the house today. It's a wonderful example of how a small, artisan brand can bring the delicious wonders of the world of Cognac to us, as a consumer. The range on offer from Chollet includes some very old Cognacs–very certainly ones that will appeal to anyone who appreciates the finer things in life. Definitely a brand to explore for both the connoiseur and the less experienced Cognac drinke
