Detailed Description
A marvellous single cask expression from the experts at Maison Ferrand! Produced from the 2010 harvest of Ugni Blanc grapes, this Grande Champagne Cognac was matured for a decade, first in an ex-Cognac barrel, before spending its final year resting in an ex-Pauillac wine cask. Layers of complex, dense fruits and leathery tannic oak make this a superbly satisfying sipper.
Ferrand Cognac Single Cask 2010 Pauillac Cask Finish | 700ML Tasting Notes
Nose: A medley of white grape peels and vinous red berry depth, with fragrant tobacco and toasted spice.
Palate: Honeyed figs, sultanas, and a touch of dried citrus.
Finish: Finish is very smooth and long.
Distillery Information
Without the influence of Alexandre Gabriel, it is fair to say that there would no Maison Ferrand as we know it today. An encounter between Gabriel and one of the oldest wine growing families in the Cognac region in 1989 led him to realise that one of the oldest Cognac houses with some of the best savoir-faire of the region was at the time totally dormant. Gabriel offered his expertise to help market the good stocks of Cognac the house retained and outlined his intention to bring back the true expression of Grande Champagne’s great terroir through age-old, craft-based production methods.
