The Cognac Grosperrin is a name that resonates with excellence and tradition in the world of Cognac. This family-owned company, founded by Jean Grosperrin, is renowned for its commitment to craftsmanship and the exceptional quality of its Cognacs. With a history that dates back over two centuries, Cognac Grosperrin is the fruit of a passion passed down from generation to generation.
The story of the Grosperrin family begins in the early 19th century, when Jean Grosperrin, a wine merchant, began producing and trading Cognac. Since then, the family has developed a unique expertise in selecting exceptional Cognacs from the region's finest Domaines.
What sets Cognac Grosperrin apart is its resolute focus on quality and authenticity. Unlike the big Cognac houses that produce blends, Grosperrin focuses on buying and maturing Cognacs from small, artisanal distilleries. These Cognacs are aged in oak casks in the traditional cellars of the Cognac region, where the mild, oceanic climate plays an essential role in the maturation process.
The terroir of the Cognac region is a key element in the quality of Cognacs Grosperrin. The vineyards lie on limestone soils, which give the grapes a unique mineral richness. What's more, the mild climate, tempered by the influence of the Atlantic Ocean, favors slow, steady ripening of the grapes, enabling the development of complex aromas of great finesse.

This Cognac Millésimé comes from a vineyard located in Brie-sous-Mathan, a village in the heart of one of the most beautiful landscapes of the Saintonge wine region, on clay-limestone terroirs.
With a winegrowing history that goes back almost a thousand years, this quiet village is renowned for the quality of its vineyards.
The winegrower had kept his harvests from the late 1980s and early 1990s, due to the economic crisis that hit the region hard from 1992.
Sales had collapsed, and many winegrowers had been forced to keep previous years' harvests, for lack of a buyer.
Old gold dress.
On the nose, it's a Cognac characteristic of Fins Bois with slightly sweet, fruity notes (mango, blackberry, cooked pineapple), underpinned by a pleasant salinity, testifying to a terroir that's more mineral than clay.
There's a certain length and a very nice balance to this aromatic whole, which makes you want to put it in your mouth.
At first taste, this Cognac is supple, almost discreet, but very quickly it takes on amplitude.
The palate is as greedy as the nose, the fruitiness extended by spicy notes that mark the 31 years of barrel aging.
The finish is velvety, very fragrant, and makes you want to have a refill.
An accessible Cognac, for lovers of traditional Fins Bois.
