About Pierre Ferrand Cognac
The estate of Cognac Pierre Ferrand is located directly in the ‘golden triangle’ of the Grande Champagne region of Cognac and is owned and run by Alexandre Gabriel. Specializing in old and very old cognacs, Pierre Ferrand is only bottled and shipped to order. They have also developed some unique production techniques of their own that are used in the aging and distillation process and have introduced innovative ways of collaborating with smaller scale producers. Both the vineyards and company headquarters are located in the 18th century Château de Bonbonnet at Ars, just 10 kms from the town center of Cognac itself.

This cognac was very smooth and fresh on the palate. However, the flavor and bouquet disappeared immediately. A cognac that is missing one third of the pleasure of drinking it - the finish, in this case - I was disappointed. I held a bottle of this for 5 years and it was very much improved. However, it was still lacking the complexity of an XO, and although I enjoyed the second bottle much more, I wouldn't buy it again.
