Description

Straw-colored with hints of gold. The nose exhibits fresh broom aromas and delicate iodine notes, with the palate dominated by dried fruit with hints of oak.

With its fresh, marine notes, Camus Île de Ré Fine Island is a perfect expression of the authentic style and qualities of Île de Ré Cognacs. The grapes have naturally higher iodine content than those harvested on the mainland. In addition, the island’s mild climate helps to bestow a truly individual character on the eaux-de-vie it produces.

Distilled on the lees to enhance the original flavors of the eaux-de-vie from which it is produced, Île de Ré Fine Island Cognac is then aged in an extremely damp cellar to add greater roundness, using lightly toasted oak barrels that provide an extremely delicate woody flavor.

Ideal straight, over ice or chilled, served with fish or seafood.

The Île de Ré is widely, and justly, considered to be one of France’s most beautiful areas. Its extraordinarily mild climate and fertile soils have prompted humans to cultivate vines for many years. Now home to more than 400 hectares under the Cognac appellation, Île de Ré is the appellation’s most northerly point and yet enjoys the mildest conditions.

The nearby ocean is a fabulous temperature regulator, the spray is a source of flavor and the seaweed-rich soil is conducive to natural vine development. All these climactic elements combine to create a Cognac which has truly been sculpted by the ocean.
