Try the range:
Made entirely on the family’s single estate which includes 240 hectares of vines surrounding the Château de Fontpinot. The whole property lies in the Grande Champagne area which is regarded as Cognac’s best appellation. This cognac is exclusively from the wine-making estate at the heart of Cognac's Premier Cru.
This cognac is golden amber in colour. It develops a fruity grape and floral bouquet characteristic of Grande Champagne. There is also a discreet hint of vanilla from the tannin in the oak barrels in which it matures. The persistence of the flavours reflects a balance and a maturity that is already clearly marked.
This XO, Cask Strength Cognac from Frapin is designed to appeal to a new audience of whisky drinkers, taking phrases and age statements in the style of whisky and applying them to an utterly fabulous Grande Champagne XO Cognac.
The 15YO is aromatically complex with notes of freshly cut wood, vanilla and black tea evolving to dried flowers. The palate offers flavours of dried fruits, toast and a lingering finish with touches of spice. Robust and complex, yet with archetypal Frapin elegance.
Consistent winner of 'Best XO Cognac' at The Cognac Masters, the Frapin Cigar Blend is a rich, voluptuos and seductive tipple. Mahogany-coloured with copper highlights, the nose offers vanilla and dried fruits notes with walnuts and hazelnuts. On the palate, roundness and richness with great length due to a very special distillation on fine lees. ''Exceptional with a cigar, but just as good without'', says Patrice Piveteau, Cellar Master. He's not wrong!
An expression of age-old know-how, the 1992 vintage is the last to join Frapin’s collection of rare cognacs. A rich aromatic palette and intense finish on the palate gives it the particular aura of exceptional cognacs, the quintessential expression of the Frapin style.
Distilled over lees and aged in sealed barrels in the dry cellar “Marie Frapin” of the family estate’s, this vintage XO gave it’s angel share over 26 years. This slow evaporation process enabled to carve its aromatic complexity and superb elegance.
