Fine Champagne, from a single estate. Our VS blends our Grande and Petite Champagne eaux-de-vie, the two first crus of the appellation, with at least half Grande Champagne. All come from our own vineyards: Grande Champagne gives them structure, Petite Champagne, around Arthenac, its vibrant fruit.
The legal minimum for a VS is 2 years; the youngest eau-de-vie in ours is at least 4. Distilled on the lees in our Charentais stills, fresh, fruit-driven and precise, our VS is crafted to give bartenders complete freedom in the glass: Cognac & Tonic, Cognac Summit, Sidecar, Sazerac.
Pale & Dry is our style. The Cognac appellation allows sweetness, colour or oakiness to be adjusted after ageing; we have chosen not to. Our VS is presented as the cask shaped it: only a little pure water, introduced slowly, brings it to 40% ABV. Its colour owes everything to oak and time.
Every Archambaud Cognac is Pale & Dry.
