Martell VS Cognac 750ml
DescriptionMartell VS represents the historic house's interpretation of young cognac, bringing three centuries of expertise to the category. Founded in 1715 by Jean Martell, the house applies the same meticulous standards to VS as to their prestige expressions. The result is entry-level cognac that maintains the elegance and finesse that define the Martell style.
The blend showcases Martell's unique approach even at VS level. Clear wine distillation—removing all sediment before distillation—creates purer, more refined flavors from the start. The selection emphasizes naturally smooth eaux-de-vie that will show well even with minimal aging. Fine-grained oak barrels impart subtle flavors without overwhelming the delicate fruit character.
The appearance is bright gold with hints of amber, promising freshness and vitality. The nose shows Martell's signature refinement—clean fruit notes of pear and citrus are supported by subtle vanilla and a hint of the floral character that defines the house. There's a purity to the aromas that speaks to quality distillation. On the palate, Martell VS delivers surprising elegance. The texture is smooth and refined, carrying fresh fruit flavors balanced by gentle oak. Despite its youth, the integration is impressive—no harsh edges or burning alcohol. The finish is clean and refreshing, with fruit notes lingering alongside subtle spice. This is VS that respects both tradition and the modern palate, perfect for cocktails or casual sipping.
