One for the connoisseurs.

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 XO Cognac is a bright, fruity, and balanced Cognac that’s appreciated by true connoisseurs. The Wines are distilled twice and the finest eaux-de-vie are blended together to perfection and aged for at least a decade in Limousin oak. The elegant palate is complex with spicy pepper and vanilla, supported by coffee and leather. In 2021, this XO Cognac was awarded the Silver Spirits Selection by Concours Mondial de Bruxelles. Savor this one neat and lose the ice.

There are three primary grades of Cognac recognized by law: V.S., V.S.O.P., and X.O, but we also know Napoléon, XXO, and Hors d'âge.
Laws concerning Cognac-making are strict as hell. Only three types of grapes may be used, and they can only be harvested in October; Cognac must be aged for at least two years in barrels made from French oak - and get this, from one of two specific forests! Then, the stills must be of a particular French shape (no, not the baguette shape); and we guess La Marseillaise has to be sung during the entire process.
Cognac is a form of distilled Brandy. For a spirit to be labeled Cognac, it must be made from specified grapes, of which Ugni Blanc is the one most widely used. It must be twice distilled in copper pot stills and aged at least two years in French oak barrels from Limousin or Tronçais.
There are three different qualities of Cognac recognized by law: V.S. (very special), V.S.O.P. (Very Superior Old Pale), and X.O. (Extra Old).
Believe it or not, the French aren’t all that fond of Cognac. In fact, they export nearly 90% of their production.
