Bache Gabrielsen XO Pure & Rustic Petite Champagne Barret Cognac

Bache Gabrielsen XO Pure & Rustic Petite Champagne Barret is a light and fruity Cognac offering hints of floral notes and a long distinctive finish. This rare single estate Petite Champagne XO is made in collaboration with 4th generation winemaker and "Bouilleur De Cru", Nöel Gay on his 15 hectare property near the village of Sainte Lheurine. This Cognac is produced exclusively with Ugni Blanc grapes, that are the raw material that come from the family-run vine-yards. Once selected, the eaux-de-vie is then distilled and left to mature in small Limousin oak barrels until ready to be bottled.

A fine XO, curated as part of the “Pure & Rustic” collection from Bache-Gabrielsen. In creating such a master-piece, cellar-master, Jean-Philippe Bergier has succeeded in producing a range of Cognacs oozing modern style. The collection invites tasters to discover the light, fruity and refreshing side of Cognac and a true taste of the rural life in Cognac.

How to enjoy

The youngest blend of this Pure & Rustic XO is at least 10 years old, therefore, a mature Cognac of its nature is best served - neat. By adding a few cubes of ice to the glass, the tasting experience can be altered, ever so slightly. The added coldness of sipping this fruity XO on the rocks will delights and can be served as a delicately refreshing aperitif.
