Cognac of the revolutionary year: Frapin Château de Fontpinot Millésime 1989

With anniversary of November 1989, I decided to taste Cognac Frapin Château de Fontpinot Millésime 1989. The grapes were harvested in the area of Château de Fontpinot, the very heart of the family business. After distillation, "eau de vie" matured for 20 years in oak casks. The cognac was introduced on market in 1999.

If you want look around the  vineyards, start exploring with Google Street View.

Taste: strong taste of apricots with vanilla, light tones of an old oak

For its distinct taste it fits better to more experienced drinkers. The cognac is available here.
