✨ Tekniske specifikationer
The Hennessy Diptyque Set is a masterclass in the art of blending, designed as a sensory dialogue between two contrasting expressions of Cognac. Conceived to showcase the dual nature of the house's legendary savoir-faire, this rare set pairs two distinct cuvées: one emphasizing the vibrant, floral, and fruit-forward elegance of younger eaux-de-vie, and the other highlighting the rich, structured, and spiced complexity derived from extended oak maturation. Crafted primarily from the Ugni Blanc grape grown in the chalky soils of the Cognac region, the eaux-de-vie undergo traditional double-distillation in copper Charentais stills before aging in Limousin oak casks. This limited release offers spirits connoisseurs an educational journey through the blending philosophy of the Fillioux family, who have guided Hennessy's cellar decisions for eight generations.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Maison Hennessy blev grundlagt i 1765 af den irske officer Richard Hennessy og er i dag verdens førende cognachus med beliggenhed ved bredden af Charente-floden i Cognac. Husets uforlignelige kvalitet bygger på århundreders savoir-faire og et historisk, traditionsrigt samarbejde gennem flere generationer med Fillioux-familiens Master Blenders. Hennessy udvælger nøje Ugni Blanc-druer fra Cognacs fineste crus – herunder Grande Champagne, Petite Champagne, Borderies og Fins Bois – som dobbeltdestilleres i traditionelle kobberkedler og efterfølgende modnes tålmodigt på fintporede franske egetræsfade. Huset er berømt for at sætte internationale standarder, og det ikoniske sortiment spænder fra den elegante VSOP Privilège og den oprindelige X.O, skabt i 1870, til enestående prestigeblandinger som Hennessy Paradis og Richard Hennessy.
