MERDEKA SALE V* – JACOB’S CREEK MOSCATO BLANC – 750ML

Martell Cordon Bleu was created in 1912 by Edouard Martell, the great-grandson of the founder. Named after the blue ribbon which is an international emblem of excellence, it was destined to be one of a kind: a new quality of cognac to delight even the most demanding connoisseurs. Its distinctive taste, characterised by a predominance of eaux-de-vie from the Borderies, and its timeless bottle design have made it a classic – an icon in the world of cognac and beyond.

For this 2018 Hennessy X.O limited edition, Marc Newson used a subtle gold color with hues of rose, creating a harmonious whole of light, design and assemblage. The result is a dynamic, streamlined variation on the decanter’s iconic shape that breaks with conventions and gives it a wholly ynexpected twist.

As distinctive as a work of modern architecture, the design with the new golden color elements amplifies the blend inside – created originally in 1870. Once Marc Newson had pared the bottle’s shape to its purest form, the designer chose to reprise its traditional decorative motifs – grapes and leaves – in a corrugated relied. These striations are perhaps the most daring design elements ever incorporated on the iconic Hennessy X.O decanter.

Hennessy V.S.O.P Privilège is a balanced cognac, expressing 200 years of Hennessy’s know-how. The fruit of nature’s uncertainties, this unique blend has tamed the elements to craft and embody the original concept of cognac. The emotion awakened by the pleasure of tasting it continually reveals new facets of its personality.

The savoir-faire of the Maison Hennessy is fully expressed in this balanced cognac: the selection of eaux-de-vie, aging and assemblage. A cognac of remarkable consistency and vitality, Hennessy V.S.O.P Privilège conveys all of the savoir-faire of the Hennessy master blenders who have ensured the continued success of this harmonious assemblage for 200 years.

Rémy Martin VSOP is composed of eaux-de-vie coming exclusively from the highest-quality vineyards of Cognac, the Grande Champagne and Petite Champagne. Such eaux-de-vie offer an exceptional ageing potential and are known as Cognac Fine Champagne.

In 1927, Rémy Martin’s Cellar Master André Renaud created the very first VSOP Fine Champagne. Moreover, it is a truly visionary and audacious decision. This prestigious appellation would be officially recognized 11 years later as an AOC. AOC= (Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée – a specific growing area protected by French law).

A superbly stylish cognac whose name refers to the old French saying, ‘noblesse oblige’ (nobility carries obligation). The bottle’s contemporary design carries strong cues of elegance and sophistication.Abundant fruit notes of pear and prune, exotic hints of vanilla pod and caramelised grape, and a distinctive woody character with notes of myrrh, cedar and fine-grained oak.

For three centuries, the House of Martell has consistently pioneered new expressions of cognac, but none as refreshing as Martell NCF. Where most cognacs are filtered below 0°C, Martell NCF is filtered at room temperature to preserve its full potential, unleashing irresistibly smooth and expressive aromas when served on ice.
