Description
Chateau de Montifaud Réserve Spéciale Catherine Vallet COGNAC
Introducing the Chateau de Montifaud Réserve Spéciale Catherine VALLET COGNAC, a reflection of Catherine Vallet's dynamic, subtle, and delicate personality.
Crafted predominantly from ugni-blanc grapes, this cognac is a product of sustainable viticulture on the chalky soils of Petite Champagne, known for their limestone content. The cognac is aged primarily in French Limousin Oak barrels, spending 4 to 8 months in new casks before being transferred to older 'roux' casks for several more years, thus ensuring a rich depth of flavor.
Presentation of the decanter
The Chateau de Montifaud Réserve Spéciale Catherine Vallet Cognac comes in a decanter with a golden colored stopper. Both together create a unique presentation.
How to drink
It is exceptionally approachable, best enjoyed neat at 20°C or as a complement to desserts, where its full spectrum of flavors and aromas can be truly appreciated.
About Château de Montifaud
Owned by the family Vallet for six generations, Chateau de Montifaud Cognac boasts 125 hectares of vineyards that are located in both the Grande Champagne and Petite Champagne growing regions. The house produces a large, high quality range of cognacs – including various vintages from years that have had an exceptional harvest. One family tradition that Cognac Chateau Montifaud is proud to follow, is that of when a new baby boy is born to the head of the cognac house, that part of the cognac created from that year’s harvest is set to one side. This is kept for a varying number of years, but may only be sold by future generations.
