Los Angeles,United States - October 14, 2022 /PressCable/ —
The recently launched Cardinal du Four, 21 Rébellion is a harmonious blend of vintage Armagnacs, 30-year average age with no additives such as sugar and caramel. “We deliver a product that rivals the best creations in the industry in quality, storytelling, cultural relevance, and, most importantly,” says Namer, “innovation.”
Armagnac has become the modern connoisseur’s answer to Cognac. Interestingly, many are not aware that Armagnac is 700 years old, while Cognac is 500 years old, yet year after year, Armagnac has re-emerged as a connoisseur’s drink. By founding Cardinal du Four Armagnac, Namer set out to share one of France’s best-kept secrets with the world. “I’m inspired to shine a light onto the Armagnac region and introduce spirit enthusiasts to 700 years of history, savoir-faire and tradition,” he says.

Cardinal du Four (CdF), 21 Rébellion Armagnac is named after and influenced by the late Cardinal Vital du Four, a French theologian and philosopher renowned for his intelligence and remarkable discoveries including the establishment of the earliest proof of distillation in France dating back to 1310 praising the virtues of Armagnac. His original writings have been meticulously preserved and are still housed in the Vatican Library archive in Rome today.
CdF is an enlivened spirit housed in a glass decanter with a red galvanized and lacquered metallic closure shaped like that of a Cardinal’s “mitre” or hat. The beautiful and timeless decanter shape resembles the Cardinal standing, as if to say, this illuminates the spirit of Cardinal du Four himself.
A perfect blend of vintage Armagnacs aged 21 to 43 years old with no added sugar or caramel. Jasmine and iris floral notes are followed by secondary layers of nutmeg, dried fig, and caramelized apples, along with elegant toasted wood vanilla flavors. The long and lingering finish imparts cacao beans and salted caramel.
CdF 21 Rébellion personifies complexity and power with elegance and finesse. He added, “It was important to create a blend that is uncompromising in quality, stays true to tradition, but would also be smooth and complement culinary experiences. I wanted an Armagnac that wasn’t just going to be enjoyed in a library after dinner, but one that can be paired with an appetizer, entrée, or a dessert.”
CdF has partnered with major gifting suite events, from the Oscars to the Emmys, the Super Bowl, and Art Basel, and recently participated in the 2022 City Harvest Gala where Cardinal du Four was featured in a live auction lot with Michelin-starred Chef Eric Ripert from Le Bernardin and EGOT winner John Legend – the live auction lot alone sold for $1.2 million. The gala raised over $5 million for the food rescue organization and provided 12 million meals for New Yorkers in need.
In November, Cardinal du Four will release CdF Pour Delage Limited Edition bottles in collaboration with the French luxury automobile and racecar company.
Despite being relatively new to the market, Cardinal du Four, 21 Rébellion has already garnered significant industry recognition and awards, including gold medals at Le Concours Général Agricole de Paris in 2019 and 2022, a double gold medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Design Competition in 2020, a gold medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition in 2022, and a double gold, 97 points from Anthony Dias Blue, James Beard Award Winner saying “perhaps the most refined Armagnac I’ve ever tasted.”
