MAJESTIC SERPENTINE DECODED<\/strong><\/p>\n

Huang Yuxing\u2019s artwork brings the new zodiac creature to R\u00e9my Martin\u2019s cognac in France, with a landscape drawing on the multitude of aromas and richness of the Cognac terroir, beautifully capturing the essence of nature’s brilliance.<\/p>\n

At the heart of the painting is the mythical serpent, a creature associated with good fortune, authority, longevity and wisdom in the Chinese calendar. In an explosion of vibrant colors, the serpent winds upwards through majestic undulating mountains and hills, representing the exceptional terroir of Grande and Petite Champagne in Cognac where R\u00e9my Martin exclusively sources its grapes. The artist’s signature bubbles echo the precious fruits at the center of the cognac-making process. The flowing river symbolizes a legacy of outstanding eaux-de-vie from the two regions of Cognac, prized for their elegance and ageing potential: key to R\u00e9my Martin\u2019s quality. The serpent\u2019s upward motion draws on the progressive nature of the House, continuously moving forward to new heights. A kaleidoscope of jewel-like, yet harmonising, colors reflect the rich, multi-faceted aromas that characterize R\u00e9my Martin\u2019s cognacs, as well as the vibrant festivities of the Lunar New Year.<\/p>\n
