Frérot Extra is second of its name, but first of its extravagance.

While its younger brother XO showcased the exquisite flavors of all crus of Cognac, Extra is 100% Grande Champagne – the Premier Cru, the aficionados call it.

But terroir is just one of the pillars upon which we built this delightful Cognac; the other is age. The Cognacs in the blend were aged between 30 and 50 years, and we’re betting on their rich and complex characters to enchant your palate.

The opulent profile starts with a bouquet of raspberries and fresh orchard fruits, evolving into a palate of caramel, walnut, and candied fruits. The finish is lavishly long with an extra amount of rancio and a hint of tobacco.

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.
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.
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.
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).
