Frapin - VSOP Cognac (700ml)
Frapin Description
Frapin is true single estate Cognac. The historic brand and iconic estate is family owned, and always has been. Every step of the process is done by Frapin themselves, from tending the vines to winemaking to distillation to aging, and no grapes nor eau de vie are bought/sold. The iconic estate is home to nearly 600 acres of Ugni Blanc vines and distillation takes place on the lees on one of six copper pot stills. Now in their 21st generation of grower-producers, the Frapin family has been active in viniculture for over 750 years.
Produced exclusively from the wine-making estate at the heart of Cognac’s Premier Cru, this VSOP benefits from the age-old traditional expertise of the Frapin family. Harvested, distilled over lees and aged on the domaine, it writes a new chapter of its history with a new decanter bringing elegance, refinement and roundness.
COLOUR & BOUQUET
Its orange colour bears witness to its time ageing in Limousin oak barrels.
The bouquet is complex, fruity with orange and floral with dried flowers. Discreet notes of vanilla are revealed. This Frapin VSOP offers a wonderful aromatic intensity.
PALATE
Frapin VSOP is very harmonious. It is balanced with persistent flavours, including fruity orange notes. The finish is spicy with notes of cinnamon or pepper.
