Up to 1,200 eaux-de-vie each aged between 40 and 100 years, sourced exclusively from Grande Champagne, the Premier Cru of Cognac.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eLouis XIII was created by Paul-Émile Rémy Martin in 1874 and has been the apex expression of the Rémy Martin house for 150 years. The cognac comprises up to 1,200 individual eaux-de-vie from Grande Champagne — the chalky Campanian soil of the Premier Cru zone, which produces the longest-lived and most complex Cognac distillates. Each component has been aged between 40 and 100 years before blending. The youngest component is older than most of the world's most celebrated whiskeys.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThis 1990s bottling predates the current production era — a vintage decanter from a specific moment in the Louis XIII program. The 1990s production reflects the eaux-de-vie inventory of that decade: stocks aged through the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s forming the oldest components. A 1990s Louis XIII is both a historic artifact of Rémy Martin's production history and a demonstration of what extraordinary aged Cognac achieved in that era's cellar master hands.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAppearance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deep amber with golden hues from decades in Limousin oak.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rich and complex — dried fruits, honey, and floral undertones from the multi-decade eaux-de-vie blend.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Smooth and seamlessly integrated — figs, dates, warm spice, and the profound depth of a century-spanning blend.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long and lingering — the hallmark of the world's finest aged Cognac.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eHouse:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rémy Martin, Cognac, France (est. 1724)\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Grande Champagne (Premier Cru of Cognac)\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eBlend:\u003c\/strong\u003e Up to 1,200 eaux-de-vie aged 40–100 years\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eBottling era:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1990s\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003eExplore the full \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/woodencork.com\/collections\/cognac-brandy\"\u003eCognac collection at Wooden Cork\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eWhat makes a vintage Louis XIII bottling significant?\u003c\/strong\u003e Each decade's Louis XIII reflects the specific eaux-de-vie inventory available to the cellar master at that time — different aged components, different blend composition, and different crystal decanter design.
