Place : Domaine de l’Echalotte 16130 Juillac le Coq 16130 – 15km in the South of Cognac
Grape used : 100% ugni white, a grape with a long period of maturation but with a good opposition against the
grey pourriture. It gives a wine with a good acidity and a weak alcoholic content.
Composition : A Blend of eaux de vie – Cognac whose youngest eau de vie at least ten years old -
Geology : The Great Champagne is spread on 13000 hectares of vineyards used in the production of cognac
white wines. This cru gives to the cognac a flourish and smooth taste requiring a long period in old cask. The
company is set up on a clay soil and benefit from a sunny oceanic climate with smooth winter and a 13 annual
average temperature –
Distillation : The method of distillation in Cognac is traditional. The transformation from wine to spirits takes place
in a charentais copper-pot still whose capacity is limited 30 hl. The first distillation produces the “brouillis”. The
second distillation produces the “bonne-chauffe” from which only the heart becomes cognac, with an alcoholic
content which must not exceed 72% -
Aging : In French oak cask coming from Limousin containing between 250 – 400 L. in a humid and fresh cellar –
Tasting notes : This cognac owns a copper pink colour going to mahogany. On the nose you smell floral smell as
well as the expression of the terroir. You can find also some crystallised fruity aromas enough pronounced to give
a great impression. In mouth it is powerful with white tobacco and smoker Orange notes.
It is a male cognac perfect for drinking it with cigarillo -
