Rémy Martin 1738 Accord Royal
About the producer:
Founded in 1724, Rémy Martin is one of the most prestigious Cognac houses, celebrated for its mastery of Fine Champagne Cognac — a blend of eaux-de-vie from the Grande and Petite Champagne crus, known for exceptional depth and aging potential.
About the region:
Cognac, in western France, is divided into distinct crus. Rémy Martin focuses exclusively on the two most prized areas — Grande Champagne and Petite Champagne — where chalky soils and a temperate Atlantic climate yield elegant, long-lived spirits.
About the blend:
1738 Accord Royal is a blend of over 240 eaux-de-vie aged between 4 and 15 years in French oak barrels. The name commemorates the royal warrant granted to Rémy Martin by King Louis XV in 1738, recognizing the house’s exceptional craftsmanship.
Style and tasting notes:
Rich and full-bodied, with aromas of toasted bread, vanilla, and ripe fruit. The palate is velvety and balanced, revealing flavors of butterscotch, dried figs, baking spices, and dark chocolate, leading to a smooth, lingering finish.
Trivia:
The “Accord Royal” was issued by Louis XV himself, allowing Rémy Martin to plant new vineyards — a rare royal privilege at the time and a testament to the brand’s enduring excellence and royal heritage.
