- Description
- Frapin's Château de Fontpinot XO is a rare single-estate Cognac from Champagne's Grande Champagne region, aged decades to develop extraordinary depth. Candied apricots, figs, and marzipan on the nose unfold into rich, balanced complexity on the palate, with hints of rancio character typical of very old Cognac. Water and pairing with chocolate or cheese reveal additional layers of vanilla and wood. A collector's statement piece for serious Cognac enthusiasts.
