Tasting Notes
Condensation
To ensure authentic flavor, traditional copper pot stills are still used to heat the wine. As it simmers away, the vapor rises through the still head, passing through the swan neck and into the coil, where it condenses to form a bright, warm liquor.
Oak Wood
The oak wood used for Martell barrels comes from trees of the Tronçais style. This means that the oaks are planted closer together, leaving less light for each sapling and slowing their growth rate.
Aging
The result is beautiful grain oak wood, called so since the rings representing growth are more compact. Barrels made from this type of wood give the Eaux-de-vie aged within them a lighter and more delicate woody taste.
BLENDING
Each eau-de-vie has a unique character, created by the choices made during aging, such as the type of oak barrel used, the length of time left to mature, and from which cru it was cultivated.
