The wine

A Delamain Grande Champagne cognac from the appellation’’s most prestigious cru, distilled in 1875 and aged in Delamain’’s “vintage cellar”. This is a single cask aged in oak casks for over 40 years. Vintage cognacs of this age are rare, as the BNIC (the cognac industry’’s coordination and decision-making body) demands very high levels of traceability from producers.

The distillery Delamain

The history of the Cognac Delamain estate dates back to 1759, when Irishman James Delamain teamed up with his brother-in-law Jean-Isaac Ranson, the owner of an old export business. The new company was created in 1763. The house is still directed by James Delamain’s descendants today and the Bollinger champagne house is the business’ majority shareholder.
Delamain’s leading cognacs are produced exclusively from grapes grown in Grande Champagne, the finest terroir in Charente. The estate produces no VS or VSOP cognacs (which are of a lower quality). The cognacs are aged in old, 350-litre oak casks over long periods. The house offers several ranges, notably featuring vintage cognacs that are full of character.
Delamain’s philosophy is centred on irreproachable quality, passionate expertise and, of course, a faultless approach to time. Indeed, Delamain takes time over its selections, then time to marvel over the spirit, time over blending, and, finally, time over their reveal.
