It's at Cognac that Cognacs A de Fussigny are made. The winery and distillery, dating back to 1814, are located on the banks of the Charente river, precisely where the barges used to pass to transport the wines and precious eaux-de-vie from upstream, where they were loaded along the banks of the Charente river.
These gabarres, flat-bottomed boats given the shallow draught of the river, were pulled by horses along the river on these banks which were called "Chemin des gabarriers".
The Cognacs age in these cellars in a humid environment favouring quality ageing.
This is a blend of Cognac Grande Champagne Premier Cru and Petite Champagne Deuxième Cru and, in accordance with current legislation, with a minimum of 50% Grande Champagne, the Premier Cru from the Cognac region ( texts and laws from 1936 onwards).
La robe is light Cuban mahogany with some coppery hues, as if there were a discreet, visual reminder of how the wine was distilled in an onion-shaped red copper still many years ago.
On the nose as well as on the palate: a perfect harmony between flavors of cinnamon, black and gray pepper, leather, blond tobacco, musk and fragrances on white spring flowers like hawthorn, peach blossom, pear, apple, lime, with a beautiful vanilla chocolate and mocha finish.
Drink at room temperature after lunch or as a long drink with a citrus Schweppes, for example, to exult in the first fragrances and flavors.
