Description
Guy Pinard XO Folle Blanche Pinard
The Guy Pinard XO Folle Blanche Pinard is a Cognac from the Fins Bois region. Produced from the Folle Blanche grape, it boasts an endearing rarity due to the recent trade of this variety for the commonly found Ugni Blanc. A staple of cognac vineyards before the phylloxera crisis in the 19th century, it now only accounts for around 1% of all the grapes grown in the region. An unmissable choice, it is a rare opportunity to taste the excellence of the Folle Blanche.
This XO quality cognac is made from organically farmed grapes, bottled without adding sugar, and the color is totally natural. With organic Cognac’s steadily rising in popularity, the XO is an excellent example of why stripped back Cognac’s are taking center stage. Produced by a Cognac house that originated in the 17th century, Guy Pinard & Fils embodies brilliance and expertise in selecting the finest Cognacs from exceptional harvest years. Proving its superiority, the Cognac is an excellent example of why this Cognac house is renowned for rare and remarkable Cognacs.

Guy Pinard Folle Blanche XO

I find it refreshing that the label clearly states that the Cognac does not contain any added sugar and that the color is natural, a very promising start I must say. What...
