Description
Le Maine Giraud VSOP Cognac
Le Maine VSOP Cognac is a young Fins Bois blend of eaux-de-vie selected at the beginning of their maturity journey. Revealing a harmonious and unique aromatic profile that nods to Cognac’s Fins Bois roots, it delights with autumnal notes drawing on the undergrowth.
Born from the unique idea of combining a love for Cognac with a unique architectural and literary heritage – Maison Maine Giraud is centred around innovation. In fact, each plot of the estate is unique to another, allowing for one-of-a-kind, refined blends that differ from the rest.
Presentation of the bottle
Dressed in a classic wine-style bottle, the tall and slim form of this Cognac will accompany other wines and spirits of a collection effortlessly. The bottle’s label features a vintage illustration of the Cognac house and winery of Le Maine Giraud, which was once the home of the famous French poet, playwright and novelist Alfred de Vigny in the 1800s. Alfred de Vigny also appears in the illustration alongside details of the Cognac – reminding us of the blend’s roots and heritage. Arriving with a matching presentation box, the bottle is the ideal selection for those looking for a Cognac gift.
How to enjoy
This VSOP Cognac is usually served neat. However, it may also be mixed as the base ingredient to many classic cocktails. For the less adventurous Cognac drinkers, why not try adding a few ice cubes to the bottom of the glass?
About Maine Giraud Cognac
Owned by the Durand family since 1938, the cognac house and winery of Le Maine Giraud was once the home of the famous French poet, playwright and novelist Alfred de Vigny in the 1800s. One of de Vigny’s most well known poems is titled La Mort de Loup (The Death of the Wolf). This poem was written in Le Maine Giraud in Charente. Twenty kilometres south of Angouleme at Champagne-Vigny, the chateau is surrounded by forty acres of vineyards where today, as for many hundreds of years, the grape is grown in a traditional manner, just like in the days of de Vigny, to create cognac, wine and Pineau des Charentes.
