The François Giboin Domaine is located in the Borderie, the smallest Cru of the Cognac area. Started in 1830, one still makes traditional Borderie Cognac here. The clay subsoil makes the Cognacs from this region a bit rustic and sturdier. The XO Royal is an assembly of various ages from the cellars of Giboin. The accent is Cognac from the seventies, mixed with slightly younger Cognacs. The XO has rich floral notes, leather, tobacco, nuts and dried fruit.
