Francois Voyer Napoléon Cognac
The Francois Voyer Napoléon Cognac is a blend of 100% Grande Champagne eaux-de-vies, aged between 14 and 20 years. This cognac is presented in a sleek, tall bottle with gold foil and an elegant gift box.
Flavor Profile: This cognac has a deep amber color and offers a refined and delicate floral flavor profile. The nose reveals notes of roses, jasmine, and carnations, mixed with fruity expressions of peach and plum. The palate is elegant with hints of soft fruit and a base of old wood, slowly developing into a long, lingering finish.
Ingredients: The main ingredients are the eaux-de-vie from the Ugni Blanc grape, known for its high acidity and complex flavor. These grapes are grown in the Grande Champagne region, renowned for its chalky soil.
Background: The house of François Voyer has been involved in cognac production for five generations, since the 1870s. They collaborate with various winegrowers in the Grande Champagne region and adopt a sustainable farming approach to protect biodiversity and public health. François Voyer was one of the first 20 estates to achieve the High Environmental Value (HEV) certification.
Serving Tips: This finely aged cognac deserves time and attention. It is recommended to be enjoyed neat or with a splash of chilled mineral water, served in a slender tulip glass. For a luxurious experience, it can be paired with a cigar or dishes such as stuffed pigeon or cherry-glazed lamb.
