Deau Louis Memory Cognac
Considered to be the masterpiece of the family collection, Deau Louis Memory radiates its venerable tradition. A very old 100% Grande Champagne Hors d’Age Cognac, with an endlessly unfolding aftertaste, it’s a fine selection from the Premier Cru region. Revered for its ability to produce such exceptional eaux-de-vie that is light, floral and lengthy on the palate, the unique geological makeup of this small area is outstanding. The fossilized remnants in the soil date back to the Jurassic period, when the Atlantic Ocean covered a large area and sediments were deposited. Millions of years later, the soil is high in chalk content allowing vines to grow and flourish. Combined with an optimal maritime climate, it certainly deserves its status as the “Premier Cru”. Impressively, the oldest eaux-de-vie in this blend dates back to 1916, which explains the maroon glow that captures the eye at first glance. From the initial introduction to the endlessly lingering aroma on the finish, it’s a fine work of art.
The Louis Memory is the masterpiece of the family collection. Its name is an homage to Louis Deau, who settled in Cognac in the 17th century to first establish this long-standing Cognac heritage. A house that combines the mastership of ageing and blending to an expert degree, it’s an impressive selection from a reputable house.
