Giboin Borderies Vintage '74 Cognac

The timeless allure of Vintage 1974 Borderies Cognac Giboin, a rare gem in the world of cognacs. A product of exceptional craftsmanship, each sip takes you on a journey through decades of unparalleled mastery.

Carefully matured in oak barrels till 2005, it was then transferred to demi-johns, allowing the flavors to meld and intensify, awaiting the perfect moment for bottling. Every detail, from its presentation to its intricate aromas, is a testament to the dedication behind its creation.

How to drink

To truly appreciate the Vintage 1974 Borderies Cognac Giboin, allow it to sit in your glass, breathing in the ambiance. This lets its flavors bloom, offering a richer tasting experience. Sip it slowly, letting it caress your palate, unveiling its intricate tapestry of flavors.

About Giboin Cognac

Giboin is an expert producer of both Cognac and Pineau de Charentes, with 60 acres (24 hectars) of vineyards in both the Borderies and Fins Bois Cognac growing areas of the Charente. This family run, traditional brand has a history stretching back to the early part of the nineteenth century, and exclusively produces a very limited amount of Cognac per year. Using predominantly Ugni Blanc grapes, but Merlot too, Giboin strives to remain committed to the methods used by the family’s founders, and for a small house curates a surprisingly versatile and wide range of Cognac and Pineau products.
