La Guilde du Cognac Grande Champagne, also known as Saint-Preuil Extra , is a Cognac from Saint-Preuil, in the heart of Grande Champagne, the premier cru of the Cognac appellation. This cuvée belongs to La Guilde du Cognac's Single Village collection, which highlights the terroir and expertise of select artisan distillers from the various Cognac crus.
Made from eaux-de-vie sourced exclusively from Saint-Preuil, this Cognac is a blend of three vintages : 1990 , 1996 and 2004. The eaux-de-vie are distilled using the traditional method in a Charentais still , then aged slowly in French oak barrels , first in brown barrels and then in large grain barrels.
This Saint-Preuil Extra fully illustrates the plot-based and artisanal approach of La Guilde du Cognac.
