One for the mixologists.

Delpech Fougerat Cognacs have been crafted in the heart of the Petite Champagne since 1777. Today, Delpech Fougerat preserves the rich tradition of the distillery and its vineyard. Distilling blends of all ages with lees in traditional stills that are unique to the Charente region, some of the Cognacs in their cellars actually date back to the beginning of the 1800s. Their vineyards extend for 100 hectares around the terroirs of Petite Champagne and Fins Bois.

Crafted from Ugni-Blanc grapes mostly from the Fins Bois area, Delpech Fougerat VS Cognac is an elegantly fruity Cognac of a light amber hue. The Wines are distilled twice and the finest eaux-de-vie are blended together to perfection and aged for at least two years in Limousin oak. The elegant and fruity palate is adored in mixology circles as it’s ideal for cocktails like the Summit. In 2021, this XO Cognac was awarded the Gold Spirits Selection by Concours Mondial de Bruxelles. Let’s mix it up!

There are six different wine-growing areas (crus) authorized to produce Cognac - in descending order of prestige: Grande Champagne, Petite Champagne, Borderies, Fins Bois, Bons Bois, and Bois Ordinaires.
Cognac, named after the town of Cognac in France, is a variety of brandy (distilled wine). It is only produced in the wine-growing region surrounding this town. Cognac must be made from specified grapes, be twice distilled in copper pot stills, and be aged at least two years in French oak barrels. Most Cognacs are aged considerably longer than the minimum legal requirement.
Nine liters of white Wine must be distilled for a single liter of Cognac!
The wine used for Cognac is very dry, acidic, and thin but excellent for distillation and aging.
Rancio is a highly desirable nutty flavor usually found in extra-aged fortified wines (Port, Sherry, Madeira, Marsala …) and fruit-based Spirits, namely Cognacs, Calvados, and Armagnac. It appears in Cognac after roughly 10 years of maturing in oak casks, becoming more intense over the years.
Believe it or not, the French aren’t all that fond of Cognac. In fact, they export nearly 90% of their production.
