Very rare and limited edition, only 90 bottles were released. The 1986 vintage is remarkably delicate, complex, with a nice length in the mouth. During this year the cold weather and beautiful sunny periods throughout the summer yielded wines of supreme quality. J.Dupont Cognac represents a remarkable timeless family treasure where expertise and tradition meet. The cognac originates exclusively from the privileged vineyards of Grande Champagne. Each eaux-de-vie is distilled in small alembics and hand selected by the master blender, the oldest barrels are over a century old and only the most exceptional can aspire to be bottled for J.Dupont.
