Description
PRODUCTION
Delpech Fougerat XO is a masterfully distilled cognac from Fins Bois and Petite Champagne, one of the best cognacs to emerge from the fiery alambics of the Vinet Delpech distillery. It is distilled on lees in traditional alambics, exclusive to the Charente. The grapes come from the vineyards of Les Brûleries Modernes which extend over one hundred hectares around the "terroirs" of Petite Champagne and Fins Bois. Its distillation heritage dates back to the 15th century, when the first producers used a Charentais alambic to make the first versions of eau-de-vie. Delpech Fougerat XO is aged for a minimum of 10 years in oak casks, but the magic also happens in the swan neck of the Charentais alambic. This is where the true aromatic quality of a cognac develops.
TASTING
Appearance: Brilliant with sublime touches of copper and amber.
Nose: On the nose it is fruity and features aromas of walnut, grape, candied orange and prune.
Palate: On the palate spicy notes of pepper and vanilla are revealed, along with aromas of coffee and leather. Finally, we find a balanced, persistent and long finish.
