✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Created in 1979 by Master Blender Maurice Fillioux, Hennessy Paradis is a legendary prestige Cognac named after the historic founder's cellar where the oldest and rarest eaux-de-vie are safeguarded. The coveted 1990s bottling captures a specific golden era of this blend, marrying hundreds of exceptional eaux-de-vie primarily sourced from the premier crus of Grande Champagne and Petite Champagne. These components, some distilled in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, were aged in ancient French oak casks within Hennessy's historic cellars. The result is a symphonic masterpiece of unparalleled elegance, characterized by its deep copper hue, silky texture, and the elusive 'rancio' note—a complex bouquet of dried apricots, jasmine, honeysuckle, and exotic spices that only decades of patient maturation can bestow.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Maison Hennessy blev grundlagt i 1765 ved Charente-flodens bredder af den irske officer Richard Hennessy og har lige siden defineret den moderne cognacs prestige og identitet. Huset henter primært Ugni Blanc-druer fra regionens fremmeste crus – herunder Grande Champagne, Petite Champagne, Borderies og Fins Bois. Her sikrer den kalkrige undergrund og det tempererede, maritime mikroklima grundvine med en markant, spændstig syre. Efter traditionel dobbeltdestillation på bærmen i klassiske Charentais-kobberkedler modner de unge eaux-de-vie på finkornede franske egetræsfade fra Tronçais og Limousin, fordelt mellem både fugtige og tørre lagringskældre. Den minutiøse blanding varetages i dag af Renaud Fillioux de Gironde og husets velrenommerede smagekomité som ottende generation i Fillioux-dynastiet. Lige fra referenceaftapninger som V.S.O.P Privilège og X.O til mesterlige prestigeblend som Hennessy Paradis og Richard Hennessy inkarnerer huset en enestående renhed, struktur og århundreders uovertrufne blendingekspertise.
