Frapin Fontpinot Cognac

Frapin Fontpinot Cognac is a flagship expression from the historic Frapin house, crafted exclusively from the family’s own vineyards in Grande Champagne, Cognac’s most prestigious cru. Aged extensively in dry cellars at Château de Fontpinot, this Cognac delivers depth, elegance and unmistakable maturity.

On the nose, Fontpinot opens with rich aromas of dried apricot, fig and candied orange peel, layered with vanilla, honey, polished oak and warm spice. Subtle floral notes and a refined rancio character speak to its long, patient ageing. The palate is full-bodied and beautifully textured, offering flavours of toffee, roasted nuts, dark honey and soft spice, balanced by a gentle freshness that keeps the profile lifted and composed.

As it unfolds, deeper notes of leather, cocoa and sweet tobacco emerge, adding complexity and sophistication. The finish is long, smooth and warming, lingering with dried fruit, spice and elegant oak.

Fontpinot is best enjoyed neat, allowing its layered character to develop slowly in the glass. It’s a Cognac made for quiet moments, considered sipping and those who appreciate finesse born from time and tradition.

Refined, expressive and deeply rewarding, Frapin Fontpinot Cognac stands as a benchmark Grande Champagne expression and a true statement of the Frapin family’s expertise.
