Launched in 1927, Rémy Martin V.S.O.P is a fine champagne cognac. As the first Cognac House to blend Petite Champagne and Grande Champagne cognacs to produce a fine champagne cognac, Rémy Martin V.S.O.P is considered a reference for this blend of crus.

The blend comprises some 240 eaux-de-vie (45% Petite Champagne and 55% Grande Champagne) aged 4-12 years, with the final year of ageing being a marrying period, after blending, in 60,000-litre vats.

Presented in an iconic satan-frosted deep green bottle since 1972 with a bold red label introduced late in 2005.

Prune, fresh peaches, violets, vanilla, baked pears, nuts and roasted coffee beans with burnt butter, soft roast chestnuts and faint lemon zest oils.

The elegant and distinctive dark bottle with its gold stamp and red band holds a "fine" cognac that leads its category.
