The grapes come from the village of Verrières, and the aging process has followed a traditional path in the Delamain cellars, with a long stay in French oak and subsequent passage in Dame-Jeanne to preserve the organoleptic qualities intact. The style is austere yet refined, with a depth that arises from time rather than corrective interventions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the glass, the \u003cstrong\u003eDelamain Cognac Vintage 1965 Collection Apogée\u003c\/strong\u003e stands out for its rich and mature profile.

The sip is consistent and complex, with hints of nuts, apricot, and quince, in a balance that unites aromatic intensity and finesse.
