"Hennessy unleashes a new collaboration for 2025 Lunar New Year, the Year of the Snake, with a vibrant limited-edition collection by Chinese couture designer, Shuting Qiu. Created by Maurice Hennessy in 1870 for his circle of friends, X.O was born at a turning point in history and introduced a new style of cognac: bold, rich and complex. The 100 eaux-de-vie assembled to create X.O were aged for a long time – some for 30 years – to give an unparalleled robustness. Maurice Hennessy gave the name X.O to this unique 'extra old' cognac." —producer

"The 2021 Robert Mondavi Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon shows notes of plum, blackberry, licorice, chocolate, violet, and warm spice. Dark plum and black fruit carry through to the palate. Fresh and lively withplush tannins and a polished structure." —winemaker
