Courvoisier V.S. Cognac (750Ml)

Description

Courvoisier V.S. is the starting point of one of the best-known Cognac houses. Courvoisier dates back to 1828 and makes its home in Jarnac, on the Charente River. As a V.S., or Very Special, its blend typically ranges from three to seven years old.

Most of the grapes come from the Fins Bois, balanced with Petite Champagne and some Bons Bois. The Petite Champagne is distilled with its lees, which adds depth. It is bottled at 40% ABV, or 80 proof.

Courvoisier calls its house style "Cognac in Blossom." In the glass you see a light golden amber color. Ripe fruit and spring flowers greet you on the nose. Apple, pear and grapefruit come forward on the palate, then spring blossom opens up. A fresh, oaky finish adds length and keeps it balanced.

This V.S. has a long list of medals. The San Francisco World Spirits Competition awarded it Gold in 2015. In 2021 it earned Platinum at the Critics Challenge International Wine & Spirits Competition. It also took Gold at the China Wine & Spirits Awards that year. The Beverage Testing Institute gave it Gold and 90 points in 2025.

Enjoy it neat, over ice, or in classic cocktails like a Sidecar. It also shines with ginger ale. Try it with Comté cheese, as the house suggests. VSOP and XO sit above it in the range.
