Prunier XO is a Cognac blended from eaux-de-vie drawn from all five recognised Cognac crus: Grande Champagne, Petite Champagne, Borderies, Fins Bois and Bons Bois. Each component is aged individually for between 15 and 30 years in large 200 and 400-litre oak barrels, beyond the minimum for XO.
The ageing takes place in Prunier's cellars in Gimeux, near Cognac, where natural humidity from an adjacent river is credited with ideal conditions. The house describes its approach as prioritising refinement and authenticity.
La Cognathèque's notes describe bright gold with bronze colour, an intense rancio bouquet with dried fruit, nutmeg, tobacco, wax, orange and liquorice, a refined and supple palate, and superb length with fine tannins.
