A.E. Dor "Grand Cru" Crystal Carafe
Grande Champagne "Grand Cru" Crystal Carafe.
A.E. Dor
A house of Cognac created in 1858 by Jean Baptiste DOR, continued by his Son Amédée Edouard DOR who researched, selected and collected the best Cognacs and eaux de vie. In those days, professionals called him "the antique dealer of Cognac".
After aging in oak barrels for decades (70 years and more), some of these venerable Eaux de vie from Grande Champagne, the Premier Cru de Cognac, were carefully collected at the fullness of their aroma in wax-sealed Dames-jeannes, to keep them intact.
Today, these glass carboys sleep in a cellar Secret called "Paradis", unchanged since its creation, proudly displaying their prestigious vintages. The jewels of the AE DOR House, their origins generally predate the famous phylloxera epidemic of 1874. They have preserved their precious contents intact for over a century, justifying the worldwide renown of Maison AE DOR.
