Frapin Multimillésime No 6

Frapin Multimillésime No. 6 Cognac: a Layered Experience

Frapin Multimillésime No. 6 is, as the name suggests, the sixth expression in this exceptional series combining some of the finest vintages from the House of Frapin. This multifaceted expression has been created using Grande Champagne vintages from the years 1986, 1988 and 1991, resulting in a layered tasting experience. As any connoisseur knows, the art of Cognac lies in the blending; very few releases demonstrate this better than this limited edition Multimillésime.

Initially a family of winegrowers, the Frapin family have been settled in southwest France since the 13th Century. After taking up the craft of distillation, they have kept up production of eaux-de-vie for a staggering 20 generations, and the current head of the company is a direct descendant of the founder. The family’s established headquarters is at the charming Château de Fontpinot, nestled among their vineyards in the heart of Grande Champagne. 

Today, Frapin Cognacs are entirely harvested, distilled and aged at the Domaine and the family are fiercely proud of their single-estate status. The House of Frapin control every aspect of production and eschew scientific methods, instead relying on age-old traditions - as well as the extraordinary palate of their Cellar Master.

Awards

Presentation of the bottle
