A de Fussigny XO 24 Carats Premier Grand Cru: Sophisticated Savoir-Faire for the Cognac Connoisseur
Introduced in April 2011, the A de Fussigny XO 24 Carats Grand Cru Cognac is a blend of exclusively Grande Champagne eaux-de-vie, aged on average for 35 years in small Limousin oak casks. Described as a Cognac with "aromatic richness, balance, elegance and softness" this is surely a must-have for those connoisseurs who are fans of the Fussigny estate.
Located on the banks of the Charente river, this estate's distillery and cellars date back to 1814, rich in a history of gabarres passing by on barges, transporting and trading the precious eaux-de-vie and wine that render this region famous. Their more than 200-year-old cellars allow the aging process to take place in a humid environment, offering a unique and high quality to every Cognac that A De Fussigny produce.
The A de Fussigny XO 24 Carats Premier Grand Cru Cognac ticks all the boxes when it comes to both luxury and quality. Its Premier Cru provenance certainly enhances its complexity and aromatic intensity, as Grande Champagne eaux-de-vie are widely acknowledged to be the best suited for a lengthy aging process. The Limousin oak casks used for maturation further increase the Cognac's superior quality, with the domaine's paradis cellar atmosphere allowing maximum absorption of tannins, encouraging developed and distinct aromas over time. Finally, the sophisticated presentation of the product should be noted, a testament to the estate’s pride, precision and proficiency in each step of their production process.
Presentation of the Decanter
The XO 24 Carats design is simply stunning, its sharp edges contrast against the elegant curves that hug the bottle's body. Embossed with gold and featuring a golden stopper, the design is luxurious in every sense of the word with the gold detailing perfectly complementing the XO's deep amber tones. The decanter comes in a deep red presentation case for gifting, storage or display purposes.
How to Enjoy
A 35-year-old XO like this should most definitely be enjoyed neat, perhaps in a traditional tulip glass to ensure maximum appreciation of each individual aroma. The rich quality of a Grande Champagne blend makes it the ideal digestif, and thanks to its luxurious presentation, this would make a wonderful addition to your next dinner party.
