So intensely personal are the rapturous joys of Rémy Martin Louis XIII that only one word can hope to capture them: inimitable. Its singularity starts with the presentation in a hand-crafted crystal bottle with crystalline ornamentation and 20-carat gold adornments. The meticulously selected grapes come exclusively from Grande Champagne, the heart of the Cognac region, and the distillate has in some cases been stored for up to 100 years prior to their use in Louis XIII.  Its radiant aromas are like Platonic ideals of vanilla and ripe grapes, borne by hints of the oak barrels in which they aged. Louis XIII is one of life's noble pleasures, fine enough for its namesake king.
