A beautifully mature Cognc blend, this XO Heritage from Maison Martinaud presents a sumptuous blend of vintage eau-de-vie selected from the years 1962 and 1963. Upon tasting this offering, you’ll be transported to the cellar master’s cave, where he worked passionately in the calm and semi-darkness. You will appreciate all its nobility and finesse due to a remarkable "rancio": the result of its long aging process, which saw the eaux-de-vie come into contact with the air and the wood.
