Pressing the grapes produces 9 liters of wine, which is first distilled to make 3 liters of brouillis, and for the second time to make one liter of pure eau-de-vie.<\/p>\n<p>These eaux-de-vie are then put in French oak barrels and stored in special, carefully monitored cellars. Every day, the Hennessey tasting committee meets to select or reject eaux-de-vie, and the selected barrels are then sampled annually throughout maturation.<\/p>\n<p>This process is steered by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/search?sca_esv=600400644&amp;sxsrf=ACQVn0__62s9pZy5tHUfBEyVu3QD5lAHFg:1705927832424&amp;q=Hennessy+XO+VSOP&amp;sa=X&amp;ved=2ahUKEwjv7tqzhPGDAxWcZ0EAHSkFAP4Q1QJ6BAgzEAE\">Master Blender Renaud Fillioux de Gironde<\/a>, who became Hennessy\u2019s eighth generation master blender from the same family after having learned the secrets of the craft from his uncle, Yann Fillioux.<\/p>\n<p>The creation of premium cognac does not end at aging.
