FERRAND LEGENDAIRE COGNAC FRANCE 750ML

Alexandre Gabriel, Master Blender of Ferrand Cognac for over 30 years, approaches each creation with a singular vision. For Légendaire, the chef d’oeuvre of Ferrand Cognac, he composes an assemblage of the most venerable cognacs in the Paradis. Each cognac lending its voice to the harmony of Légendaire contributes a unique tone, echoing its particular flavor profile, length of maturation and portion offered to the angels. The zebra-striped cask in which the assemblage comes together yields only 500 bottles of a truly sublime, one-of-a-kind cognac. It is the ultimate expression of the quest for perfection that defines Ferrand Cognac.

A cognac as distinguished and rare as Légendaire is destined to be served from a carafe as awe-inspiring as the unparalleled cognac it contains. The illustrious master crystal makers at Waltersperger created just such a magnificent vessel, a hand-blown crystal carafe crafted in the heart of the Bresle Valley in Upper Normandy in France. Just as Ferrand Cognac continues to uphold the art and savoir-faire of cognac, Waltersperger embodies the craftsmanship and quality that have been hallmarks of the Bresle Valley crystal making tradition since the 15th century. A work of art in itself, the crystal carafe recounts the wonders of Légendaire in superbly wrought imagery.

The last phase of the Légendaire tasting experience conjures mandarin orange, blackberry and hawthorn combined with moss, cocoa and incense, enhancing the transcendent sensation of fullness and depth. Like the noble grape, Légendaire contains multitudes, a microcosm of the wonders of nature and centuries of craftsmanship culminating in this moment.
