Cognac Forgeron - Barrique 89

Like all Michel Forgeron cognacs, this Cognac "Barrique 89" comes from the Grande Champagne terroir, the most prestigious in the Cognac production area. Aged for almost 30 years in French oak barrels, it has been patiently reduced by the addition of distilled water, and is now offered at 58% alcohol, a good compromise between preserving taste and aroma, and power on the palate.

Orange-red color. A Cognac with woody aromas, dominated by cedar. A bouquet of spices: cinnamon and black pepper. Sweet notes of quince and candied fruit. Supple on the palate, with a woody roundness. Carried by its 58% vol. alcohol, the aromas develop great power. Very long on the palate.

The family estate has been in existence since 1909, and the "Michel Forgeron" brand was created in 1977. Today, Pierre and Christophe Forgeron take over from their parents Michel and Francine. They have set as their priority environmentally-friendly practices.
