For 7 years, Cognac Houses have selected extraordinary prizes among their treasures. This year, Remy Martin House of Cognac offered one LOUIS XIII Le Jeroboam. The buyer said: "I know the Cellar Masters who took part, generation after generation, into the making of this beautiful LOUIS XIII decanter which pays tribute to the greatest moments of the twentieth century. It is a pleasure to have this Jeroboam steeped in history, and to support such charity purpose."
LOUIS XIII Cognac is the magical result of the strong and timeless complicity that has united viticulture and Remy Martin for over 130 years. This elixir of 1,200 eaux-de-vie, aged from 40 to 100 years old, all produced from the soil of Grand Champagne in the most precious plots of vines of the Cognac region is the most appreciated by Cognac top connoisseurs.
