Delamain Cognac Description
Created over 100 years ago by Jacques and Robert Delamain in 1920, this Cognac gets its name from its naturally light gold color and distinct dry finish. Pale & Dry is unique in the XO category: it is a cognac without added sugar or coloring, aged in old oak barrels and thus clearer and less marked by the taste of wood. All Eaux-de-vie is sourced from Grande Champagne, the only Premier Cru in Cognac.
Wine Enthusiast: 95 Points
Bold and butterscotchy, this easy-drinking Cognac also has dried fruit and nutty tones, plus a saline touch that's reminiscent of salted caramel. There's a spicy flourish on the relatively dry finish. Delamain notes that it is one of the only Cognac houses to exclude VS and VSOP expressions from its portfolio, "its range starts where others end, with an X.O."
