Description
The Purist’s Choice: Delamain Pale & Dry XO Available now from Southwest Spirits, we are pleased to offer this pristine bottle of Delamain Pale & Dry XO. Unlike many major houses, Delamain is a family-run specialist that focuses exclusively on the Grande Champagne region—the highest rated "Premier Cru" of Cognac.
Why Delamain is Unique:
"Pale" refers to the natural color of the Cognac. It is aged in "old" Limousin oak casks to ensure the wood does not overpower the delicate floral notes of the spirit.
"Dry" refers to the house’s refusal to add sugar or "boisé" (oak extract). What you taste is the pure, unadulterated elegance of the grape.
Heritage: Created in 1920, this blend remains a benchmark for elegance and finesse, often preferred by wine enthusiasts for its "Burgundian" profile.
Tasting Notes:
Nose: Intense and floral with notes of apricot, citrus, and vanilla.
Palate: Light and velvety. Expect a symphony of fruit—ripe peach and orange zest—balanced by a subtle nuttiness and light spice.
Finish: Remarkably long, dry, and clean.
Condition: The bottle is unopened with the original seal intact. It comes housed in its original Delamain presentation box, making it an ideal gift or addition to a high-end collection.
