Installed in southwestern France since 1270, the Frapin family has been a family of winemakers, then distillers for over twenty generations, owning a 240-hectare Vineyard in Grande Champagne.
It is the Grande Champagne, classified Premier Cru of the Region of Cognac, which will become the land of choice of this family settled at Château of Fontpinot.
In its family tree, the family Frapin counts the famous writer Antoine Rabelais in the 16th century. As a small nod to history, the House Frapin has as its logo the golden feather of the writer.
The wines are distilled with the lees at Frapin. After the traditional double distillation known as "Charentaise" the newly distilled brandies are housed for a quarter in new barrels and for the rest in red barrels see older.
The house Frapin elaborates a wide range of Cognacs, the oldest of which date back to 1888.
A Cognac with fragrances much appreciated by cigar lovers.
It is a Grande Champagne Cognac classified as Premier Cru in the Cognac region and comes exclusively from the Frapin family vineyard, planted with Ugni-Blanc grapes in the heart of this terroir.
Distilled on the lees and then aged in oak barrels from Limousin, a province renowned for its tightly grained oaks, the toasting of which reveals sumptuous vanilla tannins, this Cognac has complex fragrances that blend happily with cigar leaf.
Color: The warm golden reflections give a beautiful straw yellow color that reflects its aging in oak barrels.
To the nose: its aromas of vine flower and lime blossom with a touch of vanilla are a testimony to its great aromatic richness.
In the mouth: beautiful roundness, a richness of flavors and a perfect balance. Long in the mouth with slightly vanilla or toasted bread aromas. It will bring a note of freshness and originality.
To be enjoyed at room temperature either neat or on a cube of ice or with a citrus schweppes.
