Claude Chatelier XO Extra Old Fine Cognac embodies traditional French cognac production and an exceptionally long period of cask ageing. The eaux-de-vie used in this blend are distilled from the classic white grape varieties Ugni Blanc and Colombard, which provide a suitable basis for distillation and subsequent long-term ageing. A distinctive feature of the Claude Chatelier XO Cognac is its ageing period of at least 22 years. Initially, the eaux-de-vie are stored in new Limousin oak casks, allowing them to absorb intense woody and spicy notes. Further ageing then takes place in older Limousin oak casks, where the cask notes can blend more harmoniously with the distillate.

During this long ageing phase, the casks rest in the traditional ‘Paradis’ – the section of a cognac warehouse reserved for particularly old and valuable eaux-de-vie. The combination of at least 22 years’ ageing, various Limousin oak casks and the Ugni Blanc and Colombard grape varieties defines the complex character of this XO Extra Old Cognac bottling. With an alcohol content of 40 per cent, the Claude Chatelier XO Extra Old Fine Cognac is bottled in a 0.7-litre bottle. The long barrel ageing brings out classic ageing aromas such as vanilla, oak and rancio, whilst floral and fruity notes are preserved. The Claude Chatelier XO thus presents itself as a long-aged French cognac with a traditional production profile.

Tasting Note

Colour: Deep amber with warm golden highlights.

Nose: Complex and elegant with floral notes, a delicate honeyed sweetness and pronounced bourbon vanilla, accompanied by matured oak and a hint of rancio.

Palate: Creamy and full-bodied with vanilla and spicy oak, complemented by floral notes and juicy dark berries.

Finish: Long-lasting, elegant and spicy with vanilla, matured oak and subtle lingering fruity nuances.

Thanks to its long ageing, the Claude Chatelier XO Extra Old Fine Cognac is particularly well suited to being enjoyed neat at around 18 to 20 °C in a cognac or nosing glass. Dark chocolate, walnuts, roasted hazelnuts and mature hard cheese complement the notes of vanilla, oak and rancio. Desserts featuring dark berries, honey, vanilla or chocolate also pair well with the cognac’s mature structure. This XO cognac, aged for at least 22 years, is particularly well-suited as a digestif or for a leisurely tasting after a festive meal.
