Château Fontpinot XO, Grande Champagne

Producers

Cognacs Frapin are made entirely on the family’s single estate which includes 240 hectares of vines surrounding the Château de Fontpinot. The whole property lies in the Grande Champagne area which is regarded as Cognac’s best appellation. This X.O. Cognac is the fruit of long ageing, mostly in dry cellars which gives it a subtle, complex and refined bouquet.

Tasting note	A subtle, complex and persistent bouquet composed of candied fruit aromas and notes of port and the famous ''rancio'', together with notes of hawthorn and wild flowers. On the palate, the vanilla-flavoured tannins of the wood develop generously and support aromas of candied fruit, such as apricot and orange. PDF download full product information
