Louis XIII de Rémy Martin
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Louis XIII de Rémy Martin is a cognac produced by Rémy Martin. According to Rémy Martin's website, this product is "the highest quality cognac on the market today." Louis XIII cognac is manufactured using grapes from the Grande Champagne of France. It is blended from eaux de vie, some more than a century in age, then it is aged in "tiercons," barrels that are several hundred years old, in its own cellar.
Among the notable figures Rémy Martin boasts as fans of this cognac are early 20th Century French fashion designer Christian Dior, singer/songwriter Elton John, United Kingdom monarch Queen Elizabeth II, and World War II British Prime Minister Winston Churchill.
A bottle of Louis XIII may be priced as high as $2,000(US) however average price range is between $1,000 to $1,300. The handblown crystal decanter (by Baccarat) is commonly valued at $400-$600 without the cognac.[citation needed] The limited edition 'Spectaculaire' comes in a decanter embedded with a diamond, ranging from 4 to 4,75 carat. The company recommends dealers to sell the limited edition for circa $43,800. [1]
