The highest quality cognac on the market today, Louis XIII has been carefully tended by three generations of Rémy Martin cellar masters. The result is a magical combination of savoir-faire, art, and patience. Rémy Martin Louis XIII uses only grapes from the Grande Champagne region which guarantees its unique, exclusive quality. It is blended from eaux-de-vie, some more than a century in age, then it is aged in 'tiercons', barrels that are several hundred years old, in a cellar set apart for it alone.
Undoubtedly the world's finest, this exceptional cognac has always been a favourite in the world of politics, fashion, and art. It's connoisseurs include Christian Dior and Elton John. Queen Elizabeth II was served Rémy Martin Louis XIII Grande Champagne in Versailles Palace in honour of her 1957 visit to France, while Winston Churchill celebrated his election victory with it in 1951.
It's colour is a very dark golden yellow with a fiery red tint and mahogany hue. The first nose is of narcissus, jasmine, very old tawny port, cigar box scent, curry, saffron, nutmeg, and passion fruit. The second nose is of violet, iris, litchi, pineapple, eucalyptus, and sandalwood. The first palate is very concentrated and wonderfully rich in aromas, warm, and harmonious. The second palate is of the highest complexity including aromas from the first and second noses. The long finish lasts up to an hour.
