A subtle, complex and persistent bouquet composed of candied fruit aromas and notes of port and the famous ''rancio'', together with notes of hawthorn and wild flowers. On the palate, the vanilla-flavoured tannins of the wood develop generously and support aromas of candied fruit, such as apricot and orange.
Cognacs Frapin are made entirely on the familys 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 Cognacs best appellation. This X.O. Cognac is the fruit of long ageing, mostly in dry cellars which gives it a subtle, complex and refined bouquet.
''Relax into like a comfortable armchair. The texture there is fantastic, really great. It was oily, mouth-coating, something you want to pick up. Every time you taste it, you find new flavours.
