Claude Chatelier Extra XO Extra Fine Cognac 40% vol. 0.7 l in a gift box online kaufen

Claude Chatelier Extra XO Extra Fine Cognac combines traditional French cognac production with an exceptionally long period of cask ageing. The eaux-de-vie used in this premium blend are distilled from the Ugni Blanc and Colombard grape varieties. Following distillation, a maturation period of at least 22 years begins, during which the interplay of different stages of cask ageing plays a key role. Initially, the eaux-de-vie are stored in new Limousin oak casks, which imparts pronounced woody, vanilla and spicy notes. The ageing process then continues in older Limousin oak casks, where the intense cask notes blend harmoniously with the fruity and floral characteristics of the distillate over many years.

The long ageing takes place in the so-called ‘Paradis’, the section of a traditional Cognac warehouse reserved for particularly long-aged eaux-de-vie. Thanks to its ageing period of at least 22 years, the Claude Chatelier Cognac Extra XO develops not only vanilla and spicy oak but also the ‘rancio’ nuances characteristic of long-aged cognacs. The Extra Fine Cognac is bottled at 40% alcohol by volume in a 0.7-litre bottle. In this version, it is also presented in a gift box, which emphasises its high-quality presentation. The Claude Chatelier Extra XO Extra Fine Cognac with gift packaging thus combines Ugni Blanc and Colombard, long ageing, and new and older Limousin oak casks to create a classically aged cognac composition.

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.

The Claude Chatelier Extra XO Extra Fine Cognac is particularly well suited to being enjoyed neat at around 18 to 20 °C in a cognac or nosing glass. Dark chocolate, roasted walnuts or hazelnuts, as well as long-aged hard cheeses, complement the notes of vanilla, oak and rancio. Desserts featuring dark berries, honey, vanilla or dark chocolate also pair well with the cognac’s mature structure. Thanks to its gift box and a minimum ageing period of 22 years, this variant is also ideal as a high-quality cognac gift for anniversaries, birthdays and other special occasions.
