Amédée Edouard Dor's son-in-law thought he would never return from the war. Fortunately for him and for Maison A.E. Dor, he returned to his land. Unfortunately, the Cognac vineyards had been completely destroyed by the multiple bombings.
Surviving the war, he set about replanting his vines and was able to harvest his first grapes three years later. This Vieille Réserve is therefore the cognac of rebirth, the Phoenix rising from its ashes, marking the rebirth of the House of A.E. DOR.
The aging process for this cognac is truly unique. On tasting, its highly pronounced aromas of white fruit and dominant spice notes create a subtle and delicate blend, the result of a singular assembly.
