Cuvée elaborated in memory of Ulysse Dumargue, great-grandfather of Patrick Drouet, winemaker in the company until 1944. An XO with multiple flavors and a perfect finish. Presented in carafe to honor the work of Ulysse Dumargue.
Golden amber, with aromas of hazelnut, mocha, candied orange peel and ginger. Pleasant in the mouth the sweetness and the greasiness, an exceptional balance between the hints of cedar, orange and mineral nuances. Wide, spherical finish with an indisputable persistence.
Package: 1 bottle of 70 cl
Grape varieties: 93% Ugni Blanc (Trebbiano), 7% Colombard
Vinification: mechanical harvest, pressing with horizontal press. Fermentation in steel tanks. The wine obtained after fermentation has an alcohol content of 8-9°, without any sulfur additives.
Distillation: Distilled by Gérard DROUET, father of Patrick (current owner), with a 4 hl stalembic with wood-burning heating.
After distillation, the spirit matured for a year in new oak barrels, with wood from the forests of Tronçais and Limousin, for maximum extraction of tannins. Later it was racked into older wooden drums called 'roux' in which it aged 2 to 4 years and acquired the amber color, aromas and character of 'rancio'. These characteristics are due to the duration of aging, the temperature and humidity of the cellar. Evaporation called 'part of angels' represents approximately 2% per year.
Aging: aged from 18 to 25 years.
Alcohol content: 42% Vol.

On September 11, 1897, an ancestor of the current owner Patrick Drouet, deserved a diploma from the “Grand Prix d'Eau de Vie” at the Brussels International Exhibition. Since then, four generations have followed one another, and the Drouet company has expanded to the size of 39 hectares of vineyard, with its own distillery and aging cellar.
