About:
A blend taken from the ancient family reserve kept by Pierre Frapin and his descendants. Harvested, distilled over lees and aged at the estate, this exceptional cognac ages only in the dry cellars over a number of decades in order to gain its beautiful finesse and elegance. Its new gift pack with its contemporary design and “rétro” spirit take its inspiration from the jeweller’s craft.
The palate is supple, smooth, rich and luxurious, with an exceptionally long finish in which all the flavours combine in a subtle and complex harmony. Notes on the bouquet include the famous «rancio» (oxidative notes) found in Grande Champagne cognacs distilled over lees and aged for several decades. To be enjoyed on its own or as an accompaniment for a special tasting experience beloved of both amateurs and the most experienced enthusiasts. An exceptional after-dinner drink thanks to its fruitiness and finesse.
"Mature fragrances of dried peach, oak, wood resin and vanilla extract delight; further aeration stimulates toasted scents of almond, fruit compote, dried fruit pastry and moss. Entry is oily, silky, fruity and spicy; midpalate highlights honey, vanilla, dark caramel, fudge, coffee bean and old oak. Wow, what a beauty." - P.P, Wine Enthusiast
