Cognac Grosperrin Heritage Fins Bois N°61 43.8° - 70cl

Brand history:

The spirit of Grosperrin cognacs lies in the desire to authentically showcase the heritage of the Charente region. Guilhem Grosperrin, a true cognac craftsman, travels throughout the appellation each year in search of exclusive batches and family heirlooms. In their restored 19th-century cellar in Saintes, the cognacs are nurtured like unique works of art, faithfully reflecting a terroir, a specific plot of land, a vintage, and a story.
Where some blend batches from different origins to create quality products, Cognacs Grosperrin crafts intrinsically unique and rare cognacs, recognizable among all others.

Manufacturing method:

This very old cognac comes from the village of Réparsac, located in the heart of the Fins Bois region. It was produced by a winegrower who was also a nurseryman, and who had developed activities complementary to his winemaking. Very old when Guilhem Grosperrin met him, this batch was the last he owned. He had kept it as long as possible to maintain a connection with his former work and a foothold in the brandy trade.
