Nose: A complex and dense array of aromas, where exotic wood and furniture polish blend seamlessly with the sweetness of candied grapes.

Palate: An oily, well-balanced attack that unfolds into a 'complete' cognac experience. A tapestry of dried flowers, prunes, and licorice comes to life, each sip revealing more of its opulent character.

Finish: Woody notes, now becoming tertiary, while subtler spices like nutmeg and pepper make a grand entrance.

Description

Grosperrin 28 year old Fins Bois Cognac

With only 123 bottles in existence, the Grosperrin 28 Year Old Fins Bois Cognac is a rare collector's piece that whispers tales of tradition and resilience. Aged in the most unconventional of places—a pigsty turned cellar—this spirit, boasting a robust 48.6% ABV, is a 'sister cask' to the 1994 Fins Bois and represents over 15 years of patient maturation in Grosperrin's cellars. From a modest 2.37-hectare vineyard in Thors to surviving an economic crisis that rocked the Cognac region.

Presentation of the Bottle

The Grosperrin 28 Year Old Fins Bois Cognac comes in a bottle as unique as its history. The amber liquid is cradled within glass that does justice to its storied past, with dark reflections hinting at its depth and complexity. The bottle’s simple, yet sophisticated design, with its clear, bold labeling, serves as a testament to the craft and care that has gone into creating this exceptional cognac. It stands not just as a vessel, but as an invitation to delve into the narrative of the liquid lore it holds.

How to drink

To drink this Grosperrin Fins Bois Cognac is to partake in a ritual that honors its lengthy maturation. Best enjoyed neat, perhaps at room temperature to let its full range of flavors unfurl gracefully on the palate. It demands your time and attention, asking you to savor each sip as it tells its tale of survival and craftsmanship. So, pour, pause, and ponder over this sumptuous spirit that has waited nearly three decades to be relished.

About Grosperrin Cognac

The independent Cognac house of Grosperrin is a relatively new one in the region, having only been established in 1999 by its founder, Jean Grosperrin. Grosperrin is based in Saintes which sits between the terroirs of Fins Bois and Borderies and it is today run by Jean’s son, Guilhelm, who took over in 2004 at just 23 years old.

Guilhelm’s mission is to discover producers all across the region in order to create truly unique Cognacs from the six crus. This vision was made possible by the fantastic relationships Jean Grosperrin built with producers, and that Guilhelm has since built on and expanded. Today, Grosperrin works with over 150 Cognac producers, from which Guilhelm will meticulously select barrels to craft into exquisite end bottles.
