Sainclair Brandy, cultivated in Amphorae at the heart of the Champagne vineyards, is an innovative Brandy that will offer a unique taste experience:
– light amber-gold hues – an aroma with hints of fresh fruit, white flowers and honey – full-bodied and harmonious on the palateThe development of the house of SAINCLAIR liquors is achieved by maturation in a variety of amphorae of different sizes, selected for sizes from 300 to 750 litres.
The amphorae used exclusively for Sainclair Brandy are handcrafted using a process dating back to Antiquity.
First, a special type of clay is selected for its rich mineral content and its ageing properties.
Each Amphora is dried in the Italian sun for several weeks and then fired under precise temperature conditions.
Using this unique and exclusive manufacturing process, we’re able to produce amphorae of very high quality, with no limit to their durability, which, by better diffusing the aromas, give us the most specific of conditions for maturing and enhancing Sainclair Brandy.
Sainclair amphorae help give Sainclair Brandy its unique aromatic profile of floral, fruity, complex notes, as well as the harmony between its roundness on the palate and its light amber-golden hue.
Sainclair Brandy’s subtle interaction with the House of Sainclair’s special amphorae brings out unique characteristics in the final product through interaction on its texture and aromatic profile.
