Remy Martin 1738 Accord Royal Cognac
Rémy Martin 1738 Accord Royal Cognac is a sumptuous, elegantly balanced expression that bridges classic Cognac richness with approachable depth and integrated oak influence. Renowned for its smooth texture and layered aromas of fruit, spice, and toasted oak, it stands as one of the most compelling Fine Champagne cognacs — ideal for contemplative sipping and refined cocktails alike.
Origins & Craftsmanship
This expression is crafted by Rémy Martin, one of the most distinguished houses in Cognac, France, with a legacy dating back to 1724. The designation Fine Champagne signifies that the eaux-de-vie used in this Cognac are drawn exclusively from the two most esteemed crus in the Cognac region: Grande Champagne and Petite Champagne, renowned for their chalk-rich soils and ability to produce expressive, long-lived spirits.
The name 1738 Accord Royal commemorates a special royal decree issued to Rémy Martin by King Louis XV in 1738, granting the house formal recognition of quality. Today, the expression honors that heritage with a masterful blend of aged eaux-de-vie that have matured gracefully in French oak barrels, where wood influence is present but never overpowering, resulting in a beautifully integrated profile.
Critics Reviews
Rémy Martin 1738 Accord Royal is highly respected among spirits professionals and routinely recommended in expert tastings for its depth and balance. While it does not typically receive numeric scores from mainstream wine publications like Wine Spectator or Wine Enthusiast, it is widely lauded in cognac-focused panels, bartender tastings, and industry awards for its harmonious layering of fruit, oak, and spice and its reliability across vintages.
Tasting Profile
Nose:
Inviting and rich, opening with ripe orchard fruit — apple, pear, and apricot — woven with vanilla bean, toasted oak, and warm baking spices. Gentle floral hints and a touch of honeyed citrus add additional complexity.
Palate:
Medium-to-full-bodied and beautifully textured, the palate reveals caramelized sugar, butterscotch, and dried fruit layered with oak spice, cinnamon, and clove. Notes of dark chocolate, toasted almond, and subtle leather emerge with air, balanced by vibrant fruit and gentle acidity.
Finish:
Long, warm, and elegant, with lingering oak warmth, spiced fruit, and soft citrus zest that trail into a refined close — ideal for slow sipping or thoughtful sipping after a fine meal.
