Cognac La Gabare G. Champ.1971 47,5%

"Although of a different origin than the Fins Bois 1972, the history is almost identical. This cognac comes from a Parisian widow whose husband - a highly successful magistrate - had invested in cognac for tax reasons. When he died, she discovered she was now the owner of dozens of barrels of cognac, some of which had been stored in government-controlled cellars for over 30 years.

We decided to buy this cognac since it had clearly been stored in a particularly dry cellar, having lost nearly half its volume yet only 2 degrees of alcohol during its 30 year stay in the barrels. The result of such extreme storage conditions is an exceptional concentration of aromas, making this vintage one of most outstanding cognacs in the Collection. The nose has a touch of cinnamon, Virginia tobacco, spices and liquorice. Traces of distillation, but which fade rapidly on swirling. The palate is long and sweet with a hint of vanilla."
