Product details

The story begins around 1830 with Augustin Vallet and his vineyard of 3 ha. The property sees successive Pierre, Maurice, Louis and Michel. Independent and owners since 1866, Laurent and Elodie Vallet represent the 6th generation and are the fervent bearers of a singular and authentic history. They perpetuate the values and traditions inherited from the past while placing innovation at the service of quality. The Napoleon is a apart: between the VSOP and the XO in the general cognac classification, this blend also has a special position in our range: a blend of more than 10 different cognacs, all older than the years required by regulation.

Notes

This Napoleon remains typical of our cognacs by its amazing roundness and its sweetness with light notes of lime tree, dried flowers, plum and dried fruits. Very present vanilla, suppleness and roundness on the palate. The 'rancio' appears in final notes.

AN EXCEPTIONAL TERROIR

Over the course of generations, our vineyard today extends over 150 hectares in the two premier growth regions of the cognac area : in the Grande and Petite Champagne, whose soil contains a very great amount of active limestone. This chalky content is a dominant factor in the quality of the eaux-de-vie. In the light of this exceptional terroir, we work daily on a carefully thought-out management of our vineyard. We make it a point of honour to apply the traditional techniques passed down from father to son and ,at the same time, combining the new technologies of this day and age. All this allows us to accentuate the natural qualities of the eaux-de-vie: the floral touches, the delicacy and elegance to the nose, the roundness, suppleness and long finish. Ideal for crafting a cognac rich in flavours. This very special land of our domain enables our vines to produce a perfect fruit for our eaux-de-vie. Our vineyard enjoys a temperate and even climate.
