Poised to make a striking impression, Rémy Martin VS Supérieur is a bold, expressive, and modern new cognac set to debut in South Africa and Nigeria in September 2025.
Not only does this exceptional spirit represent a significant upgrade from a regular VS, but it also delivers a richer, more aromatic experience.
Crafted from grapes sourced exclusively from the Petite Champagne cru, situated at the heart of the Cognac region, this blend gains its distinctive character from the unique terroir.
What truly sets VS Supérieur apart, however, is the extended ageing process in French oak casks, lasting three years rather than the standard two years required for a traditional VS by the Cognac Controlled Appellation of Origin.
As a result, the final liquid offers remarkable depth and complexity.
Renaissance of Rémy Martin Cognac
This release marks the renaissance of a historic Rémy Martin label, as Baptiste Loiseau, Cellar Master of the House of Rémy Martin, revisits the historical blend crafted by his predecessors and, consequently, reimagines it for today’s modern palate.
Specifically designed for those who embrace a bold, vibrant, and social lifestyle, from low to high-energy atmospheres, this cognac is the perfect choice.
With its high versatility, you can enjoy it neat, on ice, or in a long cocktail with pineapple, sparkling fruit juice, lemonade, or tonic.
Rémy Martin VS Supérieur represents a bold step forward, honoring our rich heritage while embracing the vibrant lifestyle of South Africa and Nigeria.
We’re confident this exceptional cognac, crafted from the heart of Petite Champagne, will resonate with a new generation of cognac lovers across the region.

Rémy Martin VS Supérieur: Petite Champagne Cognac Craftsmanship
The grapes for this cognac are grown in the prized terroir of Petite Champagne, right in the heart of the Cognac region. Although there is limited space dedicated to vine cultivation, this exclusive area benefits from exceptional natural growing conditions.
As a result, the chalky soils and optimal climate of Petite Champagne produce eaux-de-vie of outstanding quality, aroma, flavour, and texture.
Moreover, complete distillation on the lees—a speciality of the House of Rémy Martin—gives this cognac a unique aromatic expression, with a silkier texture and a longer finish.
A truly distinctive cognac for a new time and place. Bringing both immediacy and a long, memorable finish, Rémy Martin VS Supérieur encapsulates the signature freshness of Petite Champagne and vibrancy of the House, ready for a new generation of cognac lovers in Africa.
It has been an honor to boldly reinterpret the legacy of my predecessors for the creation of this new release.
~ Baptiste Loiseau, Cellar Master of the House of Rémy Martin
