About Paul Giraud
The location of Cognac Giraud is in the prime "1er Cru" cognac growing area of the Grande Champagne, which allows Giraud to produce an exquisite cognac range, from a 6-year old to a 50-year old cognac. The estate is based in Bouteville, and with some additional vineyards in St. Même-les-Carrières, the growing area comes to 35 hectares. The cognac house combines a strong belief in traditional methods with a modern take on cognac production, avoiding any kinds of chemicals or pesticides in their agriculture and coloring additives in the final blends. The work on the plants as well as the actual harvest of the grapes is still done manually, assuring the best possible treatment of the grapes in order to generate the highest quality for the eau-de-vie. Also, Giraud only produces pure vintage cognacs, which means that they never blend eaux-de-vie from different years, but trust in the fine differences between the annual vintages.

Nose: Spicy, masculine aromas. The smell of tobacco, leather and cigars comes to mind. This transforms into spicy notes of clove and pepper. White and dried fruit appear, and a wonderful rancio.
Palate: A complex Paul Giraud Cognac which has a long and elegant...
Other Hors d'Age Cognac bottles
Eye: A rich reddish amber. Appears like flames in this gorgeous decanter.
Nose: Exceptionally complex. Aromatic power with cigar box and nutmeg.
Palate: Mouth is sweet, velvety, round but not a heady Cognac.
No tasting review available.
Tasting notes: The nose epitomises cognac that has been aged for a prolonged period with a plethora of spicey and cigar-box aromas. With time, oakier notes appear and a damp leafy humus with a hint of forest mushroom
