Cellar Masters' notes
« As a comparison, if you take a bottle of wine, even a crû classé, and you leave if for 50 years its highly likely that it would be watery and would have lost its freshness and consistence. The signature of a great Grande Champagne cognac is its ability to stay freshand vigorous despite having spent so much time in a cask. »
