Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
This is a Vieille Fine de Bourgogne, a Burgundian brandy distilled from the fine lees of pure Chardonnay drawn from premier cru and grand cru vineyards, then aged for over five years in oak. That origin shows in the glass. Walnut and hazelnut lead the nose, dried apricot and fig sit underneath, and the palate is round and supple, without the rustic edge often associated with Marc. The finish is long and smooth, with fruit and nut notes lingering delicately. It suits the collector who knows Cognac and Armagnac and wants to taste what generations of Chablis winemaking can do with Chardonnay lees. It is equally welcoming for a curious drinker looking for a gentle, nutty after-dinner pour. Each bottle belongs to a limited edition of just 288, which makes it a real conversation piece on a brandy shelf. We carry it because it is a distinctive regional style that deserves more attention, and because it drinks beautifully neat or in a well-made Sidecar.
Pairs well with
- Toasted walnuts and aged cheese — The brandy's walnut and hazelnut aromas echo the toasted nuts, while its supple texture balances a firm, nutty cheese.
- Fig and apricot tart — The dried apricot and fig notes on the palate mirror the fruit in the tart and carry through the long finish.
- Slow after-dinner conversation — A round, enveloping pour with a lengthy finish rewards unhurried sipping once the plates are cleared.
