This brandy has a beautiful golden light brown color and a nose bursting with complex aromas of dried fig, walnut, menthol and a hint of cocoa powder.
Once in the mouth, this special cask finish is pleasantly dry and amazingly precise which underpins the sherry top notes for which these casks are famed. The palate boasts notes of raisins, walnut and a herbal touch, reminiscent of traditional vermouth. The long-lasting finish reveals accents of toasted almonds and dried herbs.
The origins of MONTERU date back to the late 1700’s when the descendant of the Count of MONTERU moved to the Cognac region and married his daughter to the son of a cognac merchant.
Since then, MONTERU has remained closely tied to the tradition of brown spirits distillation and has progressively become a reference for super premium brandy but also a leading innovator in the category.
MAISON MONTERU is the first French producer of single grape brandies distilling the most sought-after single varietals. This innovative and modern spirit range combines both authenticity and tradition while creating a new product category of brown spirits somewhere between the most traditional brandies and single malt whiskies.
