Korbel 25 Year Fine Aged California Brandy

Aged to perfection in handcrafted oak barrels, Korbel 25 Year Fine Aged California Brandy represents the pinnacle of Korbel’s brandy-making heritage. Irresistibly smooth and deeply concentrated, this ultra-premium expression is meant to be savored slowly—ideally with your feet up, a warm fire nearby, and nowhere else to be.

The oldest brandy in Korbel’s portfolio, Korbel 25 is crafted using a combination of traditional copper Alambic pot stills and a copper-lined “triple effect” column still. This intricate distillation method unfolds in three precise stages, first capturing the wine’s alcohol and aromatics, then concentrating them to remarkable intensity, and finally removing impurities to achieve exceptional smoothness and purity.

Extended aging in American oak whiskey barrels brings depth and richness, while decades of patient maturation—carefully managed through blending and barrel consolidation—allow the brandy to develop profound complexity. Annual evaporation, known as the “angel’s share,” gently concentrates the spirit over time, resulting in a refined yet powerful expression that rewards every sip.

Distilled primarily from Russian River Valley Pinot Noir and French Colombard wines, Korbel 25 is a luxurious celebration of time, craftsmanship, and American brandy at its finest.
