Normandin-Mercier Cognac 1976 Petite Champagne Limited Batch #896 41.4% 700ml

The Normandin Mercier 1976 Cognac is a single vineyard, single vintage cognac that has been created with full respect for the purest methods of cognac production. The Eaux-de-vie was first aged for 18 months in new oak barrels. These were then toasted slightly to further allow for the aromas to be infused to the liquid within. Finally, the Eaux-de-vie was moved to ancient barrels to complete the aging process.

\nEach step was overseen by the BNIC. This cognac was well-deservedly awarded the gold medal in the International Wine and Spirits Competition 2016. Well balanced, both on the nose and on the palate. Aromas of lily and orange bark - a very natural cognac.
