Delamain
Grande Champagne Cognac 1999
About this Item
The Jarnac house of Delamain is one of Cognac's most aristocratic names, celebrated for bottling only old, delicate eaux-de-vie from Grande Champagne, the finest cru of the region. Pale, dry and mature in style, its cognacs are the antithesis of flashy, prized instead for finesse and length. This is a vintage Grande Champagne from 1999, the product of a single year's distillation aged patiently in oak.
Provenance
The late David Brice was a respected wine connoisseur, collector and co-founder of Brice and Burnett – The Fine Wine Specialists (formerly Wine Cellar). His lifelong passion for wine from all corners of the world wine, and generosity, helped develop a culture of fine wine in South Africa and beyond. Always with value and authenticity in mind, the collection spans a wide range of styles from leading producers and diverse regions. The wines were professionally imported under refrigeration and carefully stored at Brice and Burnett (formerly Wine Cellar) thereafter. Many of the producers are not available in South Africa and provide an excellent buying opportunity.
For more detailed information on the lots, please feel free to contact Roland Peens (roland@briceandburnett.co.za). Roland spent many years sharing and enjoying these wines with David Brice and is happy to provide further insight into the collection.
