Delamain
Grande Champagne Cognac 1979
(0.7l,
40%*)
*please note that the ABV of this bottle may vary
Few Cognacs are made from a single vintage. To achieve desired consistency and balance, most will blend Eaux-de-vie from several vintages and terroirs.
House Delamain certainly knows how to treat such a delicate process — after all, they are one of the oldest names in the region and one of an exclusive number of houses, authorized to produce vintage Cognacs.
Every year, small lots of these vintage Cognacs are chosen for bottling after they have fulfilled their promise of perfection. The Delamain Vintage 1979 is a wonderfully complex, rich, and rounded 40-year-old single-vineyard Cognac from Malaville in the Grande Champagne region.
Very limited edition: 1 of 238 bottles.
*This bottle is a collector’s item; we will not be able to entertain any refunds or exchanges.

Rancio is a highly desirable nutty flavor usually found in extra-aged fortified wines (Port, Sherry, Madeira, Marsala …) and fruit-based Spirits, namely Cognacs, Calvados, and Armagnac. It appears in Cognac after roughly 10 years of maturing in oak casks, becoming more intense over the years.
Before the labels and wax seals are hand fitted to the bottle, the bottles are rinsed with Cognac. Licking your Delamain bottle before consumption is fine with us. No judging.
There are six different wine-growing areas (crus) authorized to produce Cognac - in descending order of prestige: Grande Champagne, Petite Champagne, Borderies, Fins Bois, Bons Bois, and Bois Ordinaires.
There are three primary grades of Cognac recognized by law: V.S., V.S.O.P., and X.O, but we also know Napoléon, XXO, and Hors d'âge.
The French believe it or not, aren’t actually all that fond of Cognac. They export almost 90% of their production.
Cognac, named after the town of Cognac in France, is a variety of brandy (distilled wine). It is only produced in the wine-growing region surrounding this town. Cognac must be made from specified grapes, be twice distilled in copper pot stills, and be aged at least two years in French oak barrels. Most Cognacs are aged considerably longer than the minimum legal requirement.
