Courvoisier VS Cognac 750 ml
Courvoisier VS Cognac is a blend of eaux-de-vie aged between three and seven years, composed principally of Fins Bois cru with a balancing proportion of Petite Champagne — the Fins Bois providing the immediate fruity, delicate character and the Petite Champagne adding a floral refinement that elevates the VS beyond simple early-aged cognac, presenting the house style of Jarnac at its most accessible price point.
Courvoisier has been based in Jarnac — a town on the Charente river between Cognac and Angoulême — since 1828, and has been associated with Napoleon Bonaparte since the early 19th century when he reportedly favored the cognac. The house's characteristic approach uses Fins Bois as its primary cru rather than the Grande Champagne focus of houses like Rémy Martin, producing a more immediately fruity and approachable style at younger age statements. The blend of younger and older eaux-de-vie (3–7 years) gives the VS a complexity that makes it work well both in cocktails and as an approachable neat pour. The bouquet of ripe fruit and spring flowers is characteristic of Fins Bois cognac at this age — fresh, vigorous, and honest.
Tasting Notes
