Through the Grapevine 70's Fins Bois Mauxion Cognac

The Through the Grapevine 70's Fins Bois Mauxion Cognac is a remarkable blend of vintages from 1970 to 1979, crafted by the Mauxion family, who have been producing Cognac since 1743. Now led by Amaury Mauxion, the thirteenth generation, this Cognac showcases the finest qualities of the Fins Bois terroir. The calcareous soil and exclusive use of Ugni Blanc grapes result in a mature and harmonious expression that is both poetic and evocative.

This Cognac offers a captivating aromatic profile, beginning with smooth notes of beeswax, followed by the exotic scents of mango and banana. As the aromas unfold, refreshing hints of tiger balm and orange peel emerge, creating a lively, multi-faceted nose. On the palate, it is sharp and vibrant, with waxy and polished wood notes, reminiscent of a craftsman’s workshop. Creamy rice pudding flavors appear, gradually giving way to juicy grapes and herbal vine blossom. The finish is long and velvety, with powdered ginger, cinnamon, and exotic pineapple, lingering on resinous undergrowth notes of moss and mushrooms, along with bright citrus and walnut husk.

At 61.2% ABV, this is a bold and complex Cognac, ideal for connoisseurs who appreciate the depth and diversity that the Fins Bois region has to offer.
