✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Crafted by the historic house of Rémy Martin, founded in 1724, the Fine Champagne Extra is a masterclass in the art of Cognac. Under the symbol of the Centaur—introduced in 1870 to represent the union of man, nature, and the stars—this expression celebrates the prestigious Fine Champagne appellation. This legally protected designation requires a blend of eaux-de-vie exclusively from the Grande Champagne and Petite Champagne crus, with at least 50% originating from the chalky, sun-drenched soils of Grande Champagne. Primarily distilled from Ugni Blanc grapes, the liquid undergoes traditional double distillation on the lees in small copper stills before embarking on a decades-long maturation in toasted Limousin oak casks. The Extra designation signifies a blend of exceptional age and complexity, resulting in a spirit of deep amber hue, offering a symphony of dried fruits, warm spices, leather, and the elusive, highly prized rancio character.

Med en kompromisløs dedikation til terroiret fremstiller huset udelukkende Cognac Fine Champagne på druer, der udelukkende stammer fra den kalkrige undergrund i Grande Champagne og Petite Champagne. Takket være traditionel destillation på bærmen i små kobberkedler samt tålmodig lagring på franske Limousin-egetræsfade skaber Rémy Martin spiritus med enestående aromatisk dybde, balance og gemmepotentiale. Det berømte sortiment spænder fra husets toneangivende VSOP og komplekse, lagdelte XO til den legendariske prestige-cuvée Louis XIII, der over hele verden hyldes som et sandt mesterværk inden for luksuriøst spiritushåndværk.
