The Pasquet Confluences N°1 Très Vieux Pineau des Charentes (L.30Y) is a rare and distinguished fortified wine, crafted from Ugni Blanc grapes and aged for an average of 30 years. Drawn from a selection of vintages from the 1990s, this Pineau exemplifies both patience and refinement, offering a taste that is as complex as it is inviting.
Its long maturation has resulted in a remarkable balance of sweetness and freshness. On the nose, dried apricot, honey, and candied citrus notes emerge, supported by hints of nuts and subtle rancio. The palate is rich yet vibrant, with fruit, honey, and spice harmonizing seamlessly. The finish is long, elegant, and delicately oxidative, highlighting the character that only decades of ageing can bring.
With just 624 bottles produced, this Très Vieux Pineau stands as an exceptional release within Pasquet’s Confluences collection, created for connoisseurs who appreciate depth and rarity.
The Pineau is presented in a 750ml bottle sealed with blue wax and featuring a classic label that details its batch number, bottling date, and limited edition status. The elegant packaging underscores its small-batch authenticity and exclusive nature.
Best served slightly chilled, the Pasquet Confluences N°1 pairs beautifully with a selection of cheeses, foie gras, or fruit-based desserts. It can also be enjoyed on its own as a refined digestif, where its richness and balance can be fully appreciated.
Certified organic Cognac house Pasquet perfectly strikes the balance between the warmth of family tradition and innovative savoir-faire. In order to revive a plot of vines during the 1990s, the Pasquet family reached deep into their ancestral history to rediscover its organic farming methods. It was here that they found a beautiful equilibrium not only in the ecosystem of their vines, but also in the Cognacs themselves. Since being awarded ‘Agriculture Biologique’ status in 1998, they haven’t looked back, continuing to craft small-batch Cognacs that epitomize natural beauty and balance. With versatile ranges such as ‘L’Organic’ and ‘Esprit de la Famille,’ the Pasquet family ensures that every step of production respects the environment, resulting in a very special collection of Cognacs.
