Chateau Montifaud Special Reserve from the Michel Vallet family.
Tasting notes
Notes of linden flowers, dry flowers and vanilla. On the palate, hints of apricot and prune. Not aggressive on
the palate but a bit woodier than the VSOP. A nice "rancio" and wood enlighten this smooth
but powerful Cognac.
Leading Cognac of the range, the RESERVE SPECIALE MICHEL VALLET, blended Cognac for the year 2000,
is unrivalled on the market. Both as digestive or with a chilled pear dessert, it will amaze you with its
generosity, value and character: a fair reflection of its creator.
Wine-making: fermentation temperatures control (maximum 27° to keep all aromas), and then wine
storage on the lees for optimum conservation without sulfites addition.
Artisanal Distillation: the white wine is distilled with lees very slowly; it also develops a roundness
and concentrates on the floral character of the Cognac.
Ageing: this special blend of several cognacs aged 1year maximum in new French oak casks, then in
old casks for much more than the 6 years required by the regulation.
Reduction: slow (5%vol reduction every 3-4 months for this Reserve).
Blending: Special and unique quality, blended by Michel Vallet, 5th generation.
Bottling: this decanter is bottled and labelled all by hand.
