A.E. Dor Vieille Reserve N°9 comes from a few carboys of a blend of very old Grande Champagne Eaux-de-vie (80%) and very old Fins Bois (20%). The quality of this great Cognac comes from this very long aging in barrels until it reaches 40% alcohol by natural evaporation.

Tiffon Cuvée Demi Siècle (Half century) is a blend of old Cognacs aged at least 50 years, rigorously chosen by the Cellar Master.

Vallein-Tercinier 1975 Fins Bois is a very old Cognac distilled in 1975 from vines located on the Fins Bois Cru. The eau-de-vie spent 48 years in oak barrels before being bottled in 2023 with its natural alcohol degree of 52,1%.

The Collective's first edition, The Pioneers, bottled by Berry Bros. & Rudd is interested in the pioneers of sustainable and eco-responsible distillation. A selection of ten bottlings, ranging from Irish single pot still to Tasmanian single rye, The Pioneers series is a true tribute to distillers who care about the future of the planet.

2011 turned out to be the hottest year in France since weather records began a century ago. One of the main features of 2011 was an exceptionally warm and dry spring and fall. April and October were the hottest months on record, with April exceeding the average by more than 4.2°C. The hot, dry weather resulted in the exceptional 2011 vintage of Petite Champagne.
