Nose: The subtle bouquet unfolds with a perfect balance. An evanescent note leads to a basket of autumn fruits and polished wood.

Palate: The aroma is complex and of rare finesse, enchanting the palate with notes of candied fruit, dried apricot, almond, and hazelnut. As the tasting progresses, the aromas melt away, leaving a timeless and warm flavor supported by the smoky note of rancio, characteristic of very old Cognacs.

Finish: Long and persistent in the mouth and finish. A generous and exceptional Cognac, as the house tends to produce.

About Frapin Cognac

The Frapin family has been around the Southwest of France since 1270. Always active in the domain of winegrowing, they specialized in distillation much later on and have since continued to stand strong throughout twenty one generations! The estate owns 340 hectares of land entirely in the Grande Champagne area, of which 240 are planted with vines. Frapin’s home in the beautiful castle Fontpinot in the town of Segonzac. The most famous family member was the 16th century author Francois Rabelais, after whom a prestigious Frapin Cognac bottle is named: The Cuvee Rabelais, rather fittingly, the house of Frapin is also the only Cognac estate granted permission to call itself a Chateau within the entire Grande Champagne cru. Alongside many other accolades, Frapin was the first Cognac producer to invent a multi-vintage blend, combining vintages of different years to create the perfect taste.
