The Erté Collection by Courvoisier represents one of the most famous intersections of fine art and spirits. Designed by the legendary Art Deco master Romain de Tirtoff, known as Erté, the series originally consisted of seven decanters. Released posthumously in 1995, 'Inédit' (No. 8) serves as the final, ultra-rare tribute to the artist. This exceptional blend contains extremely old cognacs sourced exclusively from the prestigious Grande Champagne cru, including components dating back to 1892, the year of Erté's birth. The liquid is housed in a stunning, hand-painted decanter adorned with 24-karat gold, making it a legendary masterpiece of both liquid history and visual art.
🍾 wine.about_producer
Established in 1828 by Félix Courvoisier and Jules Gallois, Courvoisier is a legendary Cognac house headquartered in Jarnac, France, renowned for its rich heritage and historic association with Napoleon Bonaparte. The house meticulously crafts its spirits by sourcing grapes from the region's finest crus—Grande Champagne, Petite Champagne, Borderies, and Fins Bois—and employing traditional double distillation in Charentais copper alembic stills. Aged in bespoke French oak casks sourced from the Tronçais and Limousin forests, Courvoisier's cognacs are celebrated for their exceptional complexity, vibrant floral notes, and smooth finish. This rigorous dedication to quality is epitomized in prestigious releases such as the XO, Initiale Extra, and the highly collectible Erté Collection.
