Delamain

"Great Cognacs, in the purest expression of their terroir of origin"

1759 is the date when James Delamain, a native of Ireland joined forces with his father-in-law Jean-Isaac Ranson, owner of an old exporting house whose origins date back to the very early days of Cognac to found the James Delamain House.
The House is still run today by the descendants of James Delamain.
James Delamain has remained very much a craftsman's business, and all the operations of maturing the brandies and bottling them are carried out by hand according to the rules of the art, with an absolute requirement for quality.
Delamain it is Cognacs of different ages, all Grande Champagne exclusively coming thus from Premier Cru of the region of Cognac.

Description Delamain Edition Rare du Bicentenaire.

A tribute to the men and women, past and present, who have perpetuated the Delamain style for 9 generations. An exceptional limited-edition blend created by Dominique Touteau and Charles Braastad, a symbol of the passing of the baton between the former and current Maitre de Chai.

Comprising 5 very different eaux-de-vie Rares from Grande Champagne, each has been selected, matured and preserved by one of the last five generations of Maître de Chai then in activity. The expertise of the two Maîtres de Chai has been essential in balancing these eaux-de-vie with strong personalities, and composing a harmonious Cognac - in which 200 years of history are told. These eaux-de-vie matured in French oak barrels before being transferred, each in its own time, to dames-jeannes, generous glass flasks designed to preserve Cognac for decades, in the muffled light of one of Jarnac's oldest cellars.

METICULOUS CRAFTSMANSHIP SUBLIMATED BY MAISON GOOSSENS

For its 200th anniversary, Maison Delamain called on Maison Goossens. The choice to work with one of the 12 Maisons d'Art brought together by Chanel at 19M, testifies to Delamain's very high standards. Maison Goossens, an exceptional goldsmith and iconic fashion parurier, is renowned for its unique decorative pieces handcrafted, hammered, patinated and adorned with stones.

The artisanal excellence of Goossens and the legendary know-how of Delamain, have given birth to an already mythical dame-jeanne and a series of Rares bottles.

"Goossens is synonymous with craftsmanship, excellence and creativity. Each of our creations is the fruit of meticulous and passionate goldsmithing expertise. These values, which we share with Delamain, as well as a common vocabulary around nature, have given birth to a creative collaboration materialized in an exceptional piece."

Stéphanie Croccel, Director, Maison Goossens

The Bicentenaire Edition Rare comes in 200 exclusive bottles featuring the exceptional blend. The hand-engraved packaging was created by Goossens and inspired by the wonders of nature. Each bottle is individually numbered and presented in an oak box adorned with a medal created by Goossens.

The medallion allows its lucky owner to enjoy a historical tour that invites a journey through the centuries.

In the presence of Maître de Chais Charles Braastad, you will be invited to discover the different cellars of Delamain in Jarnac and to attend an exclusive tasting at the heart of the House.

A TASTING LIKE A JOURNEY THROUGH THE CENTURIES

ARROMA the fruit sweeps the senses away with notes of grape, plum and black cherry, followed by the richness of roasted almond and nuts.

ON THE MOUTH a hint of mocha coffee, shortly followed by spices, a forest tone and illuminated by cigar-box scents. Bewitching notes of weathered leather, handed down from generation to generation, complete the picture.

STYLE a presence, depth and persistence of fruity aromas. The whole is of an Extraordinary elegance, characteristic of the House style and preserved through the last 5 generations of the family.

The care we take when receiving wines in our cellars enables us to detect bottles with imperfections (dirty or faded labels, damaged capsules, etc.). In such cases, they are systematically set aside and never put online! Our preparation team selects only bottles with perfect presentation for your orders!

It is these bottles with slight external defects that we present to you in the "Existe en imparfaite" selection. These bottles are, of course, of "irreproachable" gustatory quality, but suffer from slight defects on the label or cap. We therefore offer them at a preferential price, making the pleasure of tasting them even more affordable.
