Présentation +

Drouet

The Drouet family has been rooted for three generations in the land of Grande Champagne, the Premier Cru of the Cognac region. The vineyard, authenticated since 1848, won an award at the Brussels World Fair in 1897.

70% of Salles d'Angles is planted in Grande Champagne and the rest in Petite Champagne, the second growth, all just a stone's throw from the town of Cognac.

The 40-hectare vineyard is planted 93% with Ugni Blanc and the rest with CoLombard, two of the three major grape varieties authorized in the Cognac delimited region, as stipulated in current legislation. The entire vineyard is cultivated using integrated methods: inter-row grassing, no weedkillers, organic fertilizers.

The two red copper stills used for wine distillation (double toasting) are small, with a capacity of 10 hectos. The cut at the heart of the toast is entirely managed by the owner and him alone. The Cognacs are aged exclusively in 250 to 400-liter casks, adapted according to their age (new casks, red casks and old casks) and the age of the Cognac. A Rare alchemy whose every step is an Art.

Description Drouet Inspiration 69 - The Cask Strenght Collection.

An exceptional edition from the 1969 vintage, this Hors d'Âge Grande Champagne embodies the culmination of time and terroir in its noblest expression. Selected from the oldest Réserves of the Domaine, this Cognac is presented Brut cask at 48.2% vol., unfiltered and unreduced, in a refined 50 cl bottle.

This Premier Cru reveals striking aromatic depth: beeswax, toasted walnuts, weathered leather, incense, candied fruits, and a masterful rancio, witness to several decades in oak casks. On the palate, the texture is silky and persistent, with a saline, spicy finish of Rare elegance.
