Le Portier Shay VSOP is a distinguished cognac that seamlessly blends traditional craftsmanship with modern sophistication. Crafted in a Charentais copper pot still and aged in French oak barrels, it combines eaux-de-vie from the prestigious Grande Champagne, Petite Champagne, and Fins Bois crus, resulting in a rich and complex profile.
Conceived by NFL Hall of Famer Shannon Sharpe in honor of his grandmother, Mary Porter, this cognac embodies a celebration of legacy and the power to shape one’s destiny. With its rich and evocative aroma of caramelized spiced apple, hints of chocolate, and lingering butterscotch, Le Portier Shay VSOP captivates from the first scent.
On the palate, it delivers a silky mouthfeel with warming notes of dried fruits and a subtle hint of spice, while the finish is characterized by a sweet smokiness reminiscent of s’mores by the campfire. This exceptional cognac has been recognized with prestigious accolades, including a Platinum award at the SIP Awards, highlighting its superior taste, elegant design, and thoughtful concept.
