Description

Bache Gabrielsen Dry & Rustic 1999 Grande Champagne Cognac

Bache Gabrielsen Dry & Rustic 1999 Grande Champagne Cognac is a limited edition vintage single year Cognac, selected from a Single Estate in Grande Champagne in the village of Mainxe (close to Jarnac) in the year 1999. Made up of 100% Folle Blanche grapes, this Cognac is a one-of-a-kind jewel as the grapes used to produce it are a rare variety due to the sensitive dry conditions needed to grow Folle Blanche vines. Having spent 22 years aging in Limousine oak casks it’s a well-matured vintage worth cherishing down to every last drop.

Upon tasting expect fruity aromas with a powerful woody structure and fresh notes of eucalyptus and saffron. It also reveals great length – as to be expected of a Grande Champagne offering.

This Cognac is part of the “Dry & Rustic” collection of Cognacs from Bache-Gabrielsen. Cellar-master Jean-Philippe Bergier has, in close collaboration with experienced distillers, made Cognacs with a modern style, which invites tasters to discover the light and refreshing style of the range with a rich fruitiness. The collection offers a true taste of the rural life in Cognac.

Bache Gabrielsen is a Cognac house currently run by Hervé Bache-Gabrielsen who is the fourth generation to take the ropes of the family business. Embracing modern standards, whilst remaining truthful to the brand’s traditional roots, Maison Bache Gabrielsen should be highly credited for its success with the international market in particular. As today the brand stands as one of the most sought after brands in Norway and other Scandinavian countries. With its sleek bottle designs, artisanal craftsmanship and reputable savoir-faire - it's hard not to admire this unique Cognac house for all its glory.

Presentation of the bottle

Unveiling its vibrant amber coloring, this Vintage Bache Gabrielsen bottle arrives in a contemporary bottle design that is sure to stand proud on the Cognac shelf. Whilst presentation of this Cognac has been kept simple – the eaux-de-vie speaks volumes.

How to enjoy

Take in this 1999 Vintage on its own and in all its glory by sipping it neat – at room temperature. As such a unique and complex aromatic expression, it's best enjoyed without distractions, sip slowly from a tulip glass and appreciate as the patchwork of aromas evolves in harmony throughout the tasting.
