The beautiful decanter, modeled after a 16-century flask found near the site of the Battle of Jarnac, contains Rémy Martin Grande Champagne Cognac. The Grande Champagne region is the most prestigious cru in Cognac – it has high-quality, chalky soil that produces sweet grapes perfect for making eaux-de-vie. 

This luxurious release follows the Rémy Martin Year Of The Snake editions, which also celebrate the Lunar New Year with striking designs by artist Huang Yuxing. 

What Is Lunar New Year? 

Lunar New Year, also known as Chinese New Year or the Spring Festival, is a major celebration observed across East and Southeast Asia. Based on the lunar calendar, it typically falls between late January and mid-February, marking the beginning of a new year. 

Each year is associated with one of the twelve zodiac animals and an elemental cycle. 2025 is the year of the snake.  

Celebrations include family reunions, festive meals, dragon dances, firecrackers, and giving red envelopes (hongbao) for good luck. It symbolizes renewal, prosperity, and the welcoming of spring. Traditions vary by country but share a common focus on honoring ancestors and embracing fresh beginnings.
