Rémy Martin 1738 Accord Royal is a celebrated Fine Champagne Cognac that pays homage to a landmark moment in spirits history. In 1738, King Louis XV of France granted Rémy Martin a rare royal decree (the Accord Royal) to plant new vineyards, recognizing the exceptional quality of his cognacs during a time of strict nationwide planting restrictions. Crafted from a blend of eaux-de-vie sourced exclusively from the prestigious Grande Champagne and Petite Champagne crus, this expression is dominated by Ugni Blanc grapes grown in the region's chalky, mineral-rich soils. The spirit undergoes traditional double-distillation on the lees in small copper stills before maturing in toasted French Limousin oak casks. This specific toasting process imparts a remarkably smooth, round texture with rich notes of butterscotch, baked figs, dark chocolate, and warm baking spices.
