✨ Tekniske specifikationer
The Hennessy Privilege Collection 6 represents a brilliant intersection of centuries-old spirits heritage and contemporary graphic design. For this limited-edition VSOP release, legendary British art director Peter Saville applied his signature style of data visualization to the bottle's aesthetic, translating the scientific chromatography of Hennessy's liquid into a striking, color-coded design. Inside the bottle is the classic Hennessy VSOP Privilège, a masterfully balanced blend of approximately 60 different eaux-de-vie sourced primarily from the Ugni Blanc grape grown across the Cognac region's premier crus. Double-distilled in traditional copper Charentais stills and aged in seasoned French Limousin oak casks, this expression delivers a harmonious profile of toasted oak, fresh vanilla, clove, and candied fruit, celebrating a blending tradition first commissioned by the future King George IV of the United Kingdom in 1817.
🍾 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.
