✨ wine.spec_sheet
Louis XIII Black Pearl AHD is a legendary masterpiece from the House of Rémy Martin, crafted as a tribute to André Hériard Dubreuil on the centenary of his birth. This ultra-rare Cognac is drawn from a single, historic tierçon hidden deep within the family's private cellars. Sourced exclusively from the chalky soils of Grande Champagne, the premier cru of Cognac, it represents a blend of up to 1,200 distinct eaux-de-vie aged between 40 and 100 years. The liquid is housed in a spectacular Baccarat crystal decanter, hand-blown with a metallic, pearlescent finish that mimics a 16th-century metal flask discovered on the battlefield of Jarnac. It offers an unparalleled sensory journey, rich with notes of myrrh, dried roses, honey, cigar box, and leather, epitomizing centuries of French savoir-faire.
