The Vallein Tercinier Hors d'Age Cognac really needs to be tasted to be believed, because this is an ultra-premium level Cognac but without the ultra-premium price tag. A blend of both Grande Champagne and Petite Champagne eaux-de-vie, it's an award winning offering from a house that takes true pride in its small, but perfect, range.
The blend has been created from over 20 different eaux-de-vie, the youngest of which has spent a minimum of four decades whiling away in oak barrels, during which time Mother Nature worked her magic. It's presented in a simplistic, traditional style bottle and wooden case, proving once and for all that you don't need bells and whistles to advertise an extraordinary taste experience - all you need is an outstanding Cognac.

when i bought it, i did not expect much (to be honest) because the price is not that high for eaux-de-vie older than 40 years.
everything is perfect in this bottle, i gave only 4 stars for palate because the taste is a bit rough (for me) when you "wash" your mouth with this cognac.
Definitely will order another bottle for next New Year.
The wood and vanilla scent in the nose and the long silky finish are what makes this cognac right for me. I am very happy with this recommendation . A great value for the money spent.
With over 500 years of history, the artisan house of Vallein Tercinier is one that deserves the attention of all Cognac lovers – from those new to eaux-de-vie to the connoisseur. This brother and sister team bring an expertise to craft Cognac that's just aching to be discovered.
Many of their Cognac's have been awarded top class awards in many industry competitions, and this has meant a growing awareness of their products in some quarters. But, as with the aging process of Cognac, such a small craft brand is often lost amongst the noise razzmatazz of the 'big boys'. And that really is a crime, because as many esteemed connoiseurs are finding out, the offerings of Vallein Tercinier are of superb quality, unique, and once you've discovered them, will become a 'must have' brand to always have in your drinks cabinet.
