Martell ages its eaux-de-vie in fine-grained oak to achieve an ideally balanced exchange between them and the wood. For Martell VSOP, the choice of old – so-called “red” – barrels enhances this unique savoir-faire to perfection. An authentic expression of the Martell style, new Martell VSOP is a refined, rounded cognac with luscious aromas of apricot and vine peach. These notes blend harmoniously with the subtle woody overtones revealed by aging in red barrels of fine-grained oak.
