✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Created in 1874 by Paul-Émile Rémy Martin, Louis XIII is the pinnacle of Cognac craftsmanship. This legendary blend consists of up to 1,200 individual eaux-de-vie sourced exclusively from the chalky soils of Grande Champagne, the region's premier cru. The 'Very Old' bottling from the 1970s represents a historic era of production, aged in ancient oak 'tierçon' casks that are centuries old. The iconic decanter itself is a masterpiece of design, modeled after a metal flask recovered from the 1569 Battle of Jarnac. On the palate, it delivers an extraordinary symphony of myrrh, dried fruits, honey, and delicate floral notes, backed by an incredibly long, resonant finish.
