Joseph Guy - VS

Joseph Guy - VS

France

The basis for Joseph Guy is laid to harvest the grape Ugniblanc in Cognac, a French province that is divided into 6 areas (crus). Through a unique combination of soil, climate and light, each and every cru vineyard produces a different wine. This Joseph Guy VS matured for at least 2.5 years in used Limousin barrels. Gold medal winner at the World Spirits Awards 2016.

Château Montifaud - VS

Château Montifaud - VS

France

Château de Montifaud's long history goes back to 1837, when Augustin Vallet began the Château. Meanwhile, already the sixth Vallet generation produces their cognac with only their own grapes, grown on the approximately 75 hectare private vineyard in Petite Champagne and Grande Champagne. This cognac first aged 10 to 12 months in new oak barrels, after which it has been transferred to used or Roux' barrels.

France

Frapin is a Single Family Estate of a single contiguous vineyard, located in the heart of the Grande Champagne, the Premier Grand Cru of Cognac.

Rochenac - VS

Rochenac - VS

Cognac

The producers of Rochenac decided that marketing wasn’t as important as investing time and money in making a quality cognac. So, while you might not have heard of Rachenac VS before, this 3-year old Cognac does offer great value for money. This French Cognac is traditionally produced and has aged in oak casks.

Moullon - 1e Grand Cru

Moullon - 1e Grand Cru

Grande Champagne

Founded by brother Lucien and Sylvestre Moullin in 1852, Moullon Cognac is located in the Grande Champagne — the foremost region in the French Cognac district. They managed to grow their company while maintaining a stirling reputation for the quality of their cognac. After both brothers passed away at the end of the 19th century, Moullon changed hands a few times. It is currently owned by Meukow, one of the big cognac houses in France. The Moullon Cognac 1e Grand Cru Champagne has a strikingly light appearance and has aged for at least 8 years. It is one of the few expressions of Moullon currently available.

Château Montifaud - VSOP

Château Montifaud - VSOP

Petite Champagne

Augustin Vallet started his Cognac business in 1866 in Jarnac Champagne, the heart of Petit Champagne. Now, 150 years later, the sixth generation of Laurent Vallet still makes high quality Cognac. From growing the grape to filling the bottles, everything happens on the Chateau. Montifaud is a leading Petit Champagne Cognac, which matures much longer than legally specified. It is over 9 years old and matured on old barrels of French oak.

Giboin - VSOP

Giboin - VSOP

Borderie

François Giboin has a small Domaine (60 acres) in the Borderie, the smallest Cru of the Cognac region. His great-grandfather began making Cognac in 1830 in the same place. The Borderie is the only Cru with brown clay as a soil type. This makes the Cognac a bit more rustic and firmer than Cognac from the other Cru's. Giboin mainly uses Ugni Blanc grapes. This sturdy Cognac has first matured up to 8 years on large barrels after which it aged for another 2 years on 250 litre barrels.

Baron Otard - VSOP

Baron Otard - VSOP

Grande Champagne

While your average VSOP Cognac ages 4.5 years, the Baron Otard VSOP clearly includes much older eaux-de-vies. A combination of Cognac from several regions including Grande Champagne, Baron Otard VSOP is a spirit of the highest elegance. Otard, also known as Château de Cognac, is a French Cognac house founded in 1795. The cellars of the Château have 3-meter thick walls and enjoy a high level of humidity, improving the ageing process of the Cognac.

Pierre Vallet - VSOP

Pierre Vallet - VSOP

Grande Champagne

Pierre Vallet was the second generation of the owners of Chateau Montifaud. The sixth generation, Laurent Vallet, used his name for this Cognac in honor of his grandfather. Unlike the Montifaud Cognac, this is an assembly of the 2 most important Cru's: Petit Champagne and Grande Champagne. The grapes used are Colombard, Folle Blanche and Ugni Blanc. This VSOP is over 5 years old and a bit more robust than the Montifaud VSOP. A warm Cognac with lots of raisins and herbs.

Hennessy - VSOP

Hennessy - VSOP

Cognac, France

In the early 19th century, Prince Regent and future King George IV of England sent an order to Hennessy for ‘a very superior old pale Cognac’. He unwittingly created the VSOP classification, a Cognac that has aged for at least 4 years. Today Hennessy is keeping that tradition alive with the Hennessy – VSOP Privilège, a blend of over 60 eaux de vie from four of the Cognac region’s crus.
