Description
The J. Painturaud Generations Grande Champagne Cognac is a rare delight. Created from eau-de-vie from a single oak cask aged for more than 60 years within the deepest cellar of J. Painruraud, this really does offer a trulhy sublime tasting experience. The years of aging have imparted some of the rarest, most sought after aromas and flavors, with tobacco, leather, spices, cinnamon, and cocoa just a few you'll experience.
And now... Let us talk about the finish. Because this truly deserves a mention, being as it lingers for a minimum of 20 minutes on the palate. This is definitely a Cognac that should never, ever be rushed. Enjoy at the end of a splendid meal, in the company of your nearest and dearest. An unforgettable tasting experience.

About J Painturaud Cognac
Located near Segonzac, in the very heart of Premier Cru Grande Champagne country, Painturaud Cognac has a history that can be traced back to the end of the 1800s. With 23 hectares of vines planted over rolling hillsides, the main crop is composed of the Ugni Blanc grape, with a smattering of Colombard and Montils. They also grow a small amount of red grapes – Merlot and Cabernet Franc – for production of red Pineaux des Charentes.
