GASTON DE CASTELJAC COGNAC 1990

Ageing 1990 vintage, bottled at 70 cl
Cask Oak cask

With its bright golden colour and mahogany highlights, this 1990 vintage from Gaston de Casteljac opens on the nose with delicate notes of prune, vanilla, a light smokiness and hints of spice. The palate is round and refined, revealing honey, baked apple and a touch of orange zest, with no trace of bitterness. This Grande Champagne Cognac is a testament to the patience of oak ageing and the care devoted to every stage of its production. At 40%, it is best savoured slowly, as a digestif or alongside a rich dessert, each sip uncovering a new nuance.

the vintage

The year 1990

Vintage good

1990 was a year of liberation and reunification, marked by Nelson Mandela's release from prison after twenty-seven years and the reunification of Germany. In Gascony, that year's harvest yielded spirits with a fruity, well-balanced profile, now aged for more than three decades in Gascon oak casks, with notes of dried fruits and vanilla.

How it is made

G. de Casteljac Cognacs are a small-batch production dedicated solely to the expression of exceptional gustatory quality: to savour one of these Cognacs is, above all, a rare privilege. G. de Casteljac Cognac is crafted from pure, natural white wines, carefully selected, which reveal their distinctive aromas and share the same characteristics as the original, traditional Cognacs of the 18th century. To preserve an intense aromatic profile, they are distilled very slowly, without filtration.
