About this release
When it comes to Cognac, we are rather traditional in taste. We need fruits and lots of it! This Lot 85 fits this simple description perfectly and will excite you with lots of peaches, mixed with a nice flowery spice from the cask.
Fun fact about 1985: You can find some Lot 85 or 1985 Cognac in general, but almost nothing from Grande Champagne. When we talked to Pierre Vaudon (the mastermind behind Voyer and Vaudon) about it, we got this info: “1985 was marked by a balanced climate — cool spring, followed by a sunny and dry summer, ideal for ripening the Ugni Blanc grapes slowly and steadily. This contributed to wines with a refined aromatic profile and great distilling potential. In Cognac, the harvest was relatively small in volume but very high in quality, which is part of the reason why 1985 vintages are not often seen on the market today.”
For this release we teamed up with Sebastian Renner and Jens Fischer from CognacAuction.com. We’ve first met them at our first Whisky Fair in Limburg in 2022 and immediately bonded over our shared passion for spirits.
