François Voyer Hors d’Age Cognac
The Francois Voyer Hors d’Age is a true commitment to traditional Cognac production, dating back to the year of 1870. This is a thoroughbred Grande Champagne Cognac with a careful assembly of eaux-de-vie descending from the Premier Cru in the region. Not only is this of unique quality, but some of the eaux-de-vie from this blend have been aged for up to 60 years, and no less than 40, making it a veritable Hors d’Age classification. For this reason perhaps, it has become a favorite among culinary experts in France. Selected by Alain Ducasse, who has 19 Michelin Stars to his name, this is a house Cognac at ‘Le Jules Verne’ restaurant on the iconic first floor platform of the Eiffel Tower. As a premium Grande Champagne blend should demonstrate, the Voyer Hors d’Age is a true harmony of incredibly synthesized flavors and aromas. It is the apogee of luxury and elegance.
The François Voyer Cognac maison dates back to the 19th century, where the philosophy behind their technique is one of double distillation what they themselves produced. Such artisanal craftsmanship is practised in each and every one of their blends, which range in ages, and are at least 20 years old.
Presentation of the bottle
This product is an artisanal creation, reflecting the craftsmanship and authenticity of the Francois Voyer house. Each bottle is hand-sealed using a manual waxing technique, which may result in the following unique characteristics:
A small air bubble in the wax seal: This is a natural occurrence due to physical phenomena during the sealing process and does not affect the quality or integrity of the bottle.
High-quality wooden stopper mounted on natural cork: Ensures an exceptional seal, preventing any abnormal evaporation while preserving the product's superior quality.
These features highlight the traditional and authentic methods used in crafting this product. Variations in appearance are part of its charm and do not constitute defects.
Please note: The wooden box is temporarily unavailable. Orders placed from the 1st of December 2025 will be shipped without the wooden box. New stock is expected soon.
