This re-release of its flagship expression was created with the help of the brand's co-founder Hubert Germain-Robin who worked alongside Gallo's master distiller David Warter. It is made primarily with California colombard grapes distilled in an alambic still. It aged in French Limousin oak for 7 years. Only 1400 6-pack cases available for 2020.

    Produced in the US, this is usually referring to brandy distilled from grape-based wine. If the producer uses other fruit, it must be stated on the label. If aged under two years in oak, it must state the word "immature" on the label. Beyond that, labels such as VS, VSOP, and XO mean little as the brands themselves dictate what that means to them.

Tasting Notes

"The nose offers violets and roses leading to a tropical fruit bowl with juicy ripe mango, papaya, and lychee. There's also a distinct buttery, creaminess. The palate is soft and delicate with grapes, berries, and dark chocolate all in front of a floral bouquet. The finish is short and perfumed, with oak, honey, ginger, and hay."
