The Cordon Bleu XO is a Cognac produced by Martell, an ancient French Maison that boasts a centuries-old tradition in the making of great Cognacs, which have now become part of the history of this noble distillate. Unlike other Spirits, Cognac uses high-quality wines as raw materials, which come from Ugni Blanc vineyards cultivated in the Poitou Charentes region. The delicate and subtle white wines are perfect for undergoing a distillation process, which still takes place today using old copper stills. The great attention to raw materials and the distillation process allows for the creation of labels that have always been positioned among the best expressions of the territory.
The Cognac XO Cordon Bleu by Martell is a high-end label, born from excellent wines. High-quality grapes are the essential prerequisite for proceeding with the production of great Cognacs. After distillation, the Cognac ages for at least six years in barrels made of fine Troncais oak, previously used. In the glass, it presents itself with a golden yellow hue with brilliant coppery reflections. On the nose, it expresses a very fine and elegant bouquet, characterized by aromas of dried fruit, candied citrus peel, roasted notes, and hints of sweet oriental spices. On the palate, it is smooth and harmonious, with a particularly soft entry, a long sip rich in precious aromatic facets, leading to a finish of great taste persistence. An extraordinary Cognac dedicated to the most refined connoisseurs.
