Harvest & Vinification
60% Grande Champagne, 40% Petite Champagne, a blend of 30-60 year old Cognacs. Distilled in copper alembic Charentais stills in a swan’s neck pipe that allows the spirit to capture the essence of the Fine Champagne with premium aromatic quality. Then aged in oak barrels made of oak from the Limousin and Tronçais forests. Blended in 50 hectoliter wooden vats then left for two years before bottling. When the blend is ready, about a quarter by volume of a previous Mémorial blend is added.
