- Description
- Michel Forgeron's 2010 Folle Blanche Cognac spent 11 years in French oak before bottling in 2021, representing a classic Cognac terroir expression. White pepper, blond tobacco, vanilla, and dried apricot define the nose, while the palate delivers citrus fruits, bitter orange zest, and a peppery tingle that cuts through the spirit's natural sweetness. At 47% ABV, this rewards contemplative sipping and pairs well with reflection.
