This Grosperrin Petite Champagne cognac is a 1970 vintage which, like Grosperrin 1973 Petite Champagne, comes from a family of notaries who have lived in Cognac for several generations. It is part of the estate of the father, who bequeathed his stock to his wife and son, a notary like himself.
The precise terroir of this cognac remains unknown, except that the wines come from the area around Châteauneuf-sur-Charente, a beautiful terroir in the Petite Champagne production area. They were distilled by a small distillery founded in 1958, which still exists today.
This cognac has spent over 50 years in oak barrels, including 40 years in "country cellars" rented by ORECO (l'Organisation Économique du Cognac), and the last 11 years in the Grosperrin cellars.
Bottled in November 2021, this is a cognac that has been slightly reduced for several years.
