Alluded to on the label, the 1719 XO Collection Privee N°65 Cognac is a single-harvest vintage from the summer of 1965. This release contains the finest eaux-de-vie produced exclusively from Ugni Blanc grapes grown in the producer’s family vineyard in the heart of the Grande Champagne. After distillation in a special copper alembic still, this exceptional Premier Cru eaux-de-vie was aged for five decades in hand-selected Tronçais oak barrels. It is the combination of time, care for nature and respect of tradition that has given this Cognac its unique character and a perfect balance of aromas and sensations. Pushing the boundaries of finesse and intensity, this rarity exceeds all expectations.
The name of 1719 Cognac has been taken from the very building that is the heart of the family estate. Founded by Pierre Phillipe Joubert, the family production of fine wines and spirits has continued to be adhered to for over four centuries. Back then, and still true today, 1719 Cognac is all about creating exceptional eaux-de-vie that showcase the sumptuous aromas which have made the Premier Cru synonymous with quality.
Today, the ethos of the house remains as steeped in tradition as it always has. Cellar Master Jean Phillipe Boulay takes full advantage of the exceptional selection of very old Cognacs that are contained within the cellars of 1719 Cognac; every Cognac produced is a Grande Champagne delight, with no blending of those with different ages or from different estates.
The angular decanter makes a striking impression, with its square shoulders and heavy base. The oversized gold stopper perfectly matches the gold lettering on the black label.
To fully appreciate the individuality of this vintage, we suggest enjoying it neat in a tulip glass - after letting it rest for 30 seconds to develop fully. A dash of water may be added to allow the aromas to open up further.
1719 Cognac is a house that takes true tradition and seamlessly merges it with everything 21st century. So named after the year the house came into being, the expertise of 1719 Cognac is winning awards throughout the industry for its high quality and innovative products.
