Pierre Vallet XXO Hors d’Age Cognac is a unique blend from the Maison Pierre Vallet, a family-run cognac house that has contributed to the development of the newest age denomination in the world of cognac and has created its own Hors d’Age extra eau-de-vie.

The tasting notes include aroma of vanilla, prune, liquorice and candied apricot, making it a very elegant blend with a predominant “rancio”. On the palate, very soft and delicate, a lot of finesse and great length typical of very old cognacs – A very nice balance! Due to its age and unique taste, this cognac is recommended to be consumed plain, at room temperature (20 °C).

This cognac is aged for at least 14 years in French Oak Barrels (minimum age according to regulations), although most of the blends used are much older and the average age of Pierre Vallet XXO cognac is 30 years.

The fermentation process takes place at a maximum temperature of 27 ° C to preserve all the aroma. The distillation itself takes place very slowly with a lot of lees, thanks to which the roundness of the cognac develops along with its concentrated floral character.
