Excellence N°2 Year 1889

is one of few Vintage Très Vieilles Grandes Champagnes: These Cognacs are sold at their natural alcoholic strength -less than 40%- after aging, and are kept in wax-sealed demijohns until being bottled for sale. Most Very Old Cognacs to be found are 'flat' -they have lost their aroma and their vigor-. They are very often used to improve younger Cognac in a blend. Despite their great age, however, A. E. DOR 'Très Vieilles Grandes Champagne' have retained their vigor and personality, and really deserve to be tasted and appreciated just as they are. This is due to the fact that they where produced in that noblest of growths, the Grande Champagne area, and to the meticulous care lavished upon them from distillation to aging.
