✨ Tekniske specifikationer
A monumental tribute to the founder of the maison, the Richard Hennessy Daniel Libeskind Decanter represents the pinnacle of Cognac craftsmanship, marrying centuries of liquid history with avant-garde architectural design. This ultra-prestige blend is crafted from some of the rarest and oldest eaux-de-vie in Hennessy's founder's cellar, with some components aging for up to two centuries. Made primarily from Ugni Blanc grapes harvested from the region's finest crus, notably Grande Champagne, the spirit undergoes traditional double-distillation in copper Charentais alembic stills before its incredibly long slumber in French Limousin oak casks. The legendary master blenders of the Fillioux family have curated this blend to offer unparalleled complexity, exhibiting notes of delicate spices, preserved fruits, leather, and undergrowth. To house this liquid masterpiece, visionary architect Daniel Libeskind designed a striking, geometric Baccarat crystal decanter that juxtaposes the soft, organic curves of classic Cognac heritage with sharp, crystalline modern angles, creating a stunning dialogue between past and future.
🍾 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.
