What makes a cognac collectable<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Collectable value is determined above all by rarity, age and origin. Very old eaux-de-vie, single-cru or single-vintage cognacs and limited editions are rare on the market and seldom return. The bottle plays its part too: hand-crafted crystal decanters, numbered bottles and packaging created in collaboration with artists also turn a cognac into an object that is a pleasure to look at and to keep.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Vintage cognacs<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

A vintage, or mill\u00e9sime, cognac is made solely from the harvest of one year, and the year is stated on the label. Most cognacs are blends, so vintage cognacs are a small and special niche. They are often chosen as gifts to match a year of birth or of another important event. Each vintage reflects the weather of its year and the hand of its producer, which is why different years from the same house differ in fascinating ways.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Limited editions and decanters<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

From time to time cognac houses create special releases: cellar master’s selections, single-cask bottlings, anniversary blends and crystal decanters made by the finest glassmakers. Such bottles are produced in limited quantities, and their value lies both in the spirit and in the craftsmanship. They often come with a certificate or a number confirming the bottle’s authenticity.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

How to keep a collection<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Cognac does not continue to mature in the bottle, but correct storage preserves its quality for decades. Keep bottles upright, in the dark and at an even temperature, away from direct sunlight and sources of heat. Keep the original packaging, certificates and documents \u2014 they are an inseparable part of a collection’s value.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

How to start a collection<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

A good collection need not begin with the most expensive bottle. Many people start with a theme: the different age categories of one cognac house, cognacs from all six growing areas, or vintages linked to family anniversaries. In this way a collection becomes a personal story rather than simply a shelf of bottles. Keep a record of your purchases, hold on to the packaging and documents, and don’t forget that cognac is also made to be enjoyed \u2014 some bottles deserve to be opened precisely when the moment is right.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Giving as a gift<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

A collectible cognac is one of the most distinguished gifts: it suits a milestone birthday, the celebration of a business relationship or a keepsake that links generations.

We will help you choose and offer festive packaging.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Authenticity and provenance<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

With a collector’s bottle, provenance is as important as what is inside. We buy only from reliable suppliers and official importers, and we check the condition of every bottle before it is sold. So you can be sure you receive exactly what you buy.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
