NEW YORK, Feb. 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Rémy Martin announces the launch of V.S.O.P This is My City Limited-Editions celebrating vibrant hip-hop cultures across the United States. This exclusive release features four unique bottle designs, each paying homage to the iconic cities of Atlanta, Chicago, Detroit, and New York City.
