Meukow Bottle Catalogue (last updated Sep 9, 2024)

(278 bottles and 155 miniatures, but still incomplete)

Meukow was established in 1862 by two brothers Meukow who were sent to France by the Russian Tsar Alexander II to supply the Russian court with cognacs. It was for a long time a family-run business until financial difficulties arose at the end of the 1960s.  In 1979 Meukow was bought by Michel Coste of the CCG-group who revitalized the company and who also designed the new and now famous panther-logo for Meukow in 1995.

  1. Hi, I bought this beatiful bottle Meukow Cordon d’or Extra Age. Do you know something about this product? Age of the bottle, age of the cognac inside, price?

    thank you
    Beni

    Antwoorden ↓

    • 1970s bottle. Cognac has been aged for over 20 years.
      Price? Difficult to say, today it is what people are willing to pay.
      I guess around €200-300.

    • The picture is very small, but if I am not mistaken, this is a NPU, Nec plus ultra quality from the 1980s. It is in between XO and Extra.

    • Hi,

      These cordon rouge bottles are from the 1950s. I haven’t seen this one before and the photo is too small to make out the details. It is probably a VSOP, but in those days a VSOP could easily have aged 30 or 40 years. I think there must have been a shoulder label that has fallen of. Could you sen me a larger format photo if I send you an e-mail?

      Kind regards,
      Ton

    Thanks

    • Hello,

      Beautiful bottle!
      In the 1950s the control on ages by the law was not yet properly arranged. Today all bottles that have stars – be it one star, three stars or even five stars – are considered to have VS or three star age, so aged for a minimum of two years. But many of these bottles from before the 1960s could have been aged in wooden casks for substantial more years.

      If the level in the bottles have not dropped too low, this cognac can be very drinkable indeed. If there has been an important evaporation, the alcohol percentage will have dropped too low, giving it a weak taste. Another factor is, if the bottles were kept standing upright or laying down. Because when they have been laying down for a long time, the alcohol will have corroded the corks, which will have given it a bad taste.
      If the bottles have been standing up and the capsule is intact there is a good chance the cork is still in good condition.
      Maybe you can see some of the cork just below the metal capsule and inspect that?
      If in doubt, you can have experts to re-cork the bottle. But it has to be done with the proper papers to guarantee the quality of this process. I am not sure if this can be done outside of France. This will be very costly and maybe to much for a bottle that will bring in €300-400 in an auction if lucky.

      Hope this helps.
      I would very much like a proper picture of this bottle for my Meukow Bottle catalog page. I will send you an email to facilitate this.

      Regards,
      Ton
