Cognac Forgeron - Barrique 88
Like all Michel Forgeron cognacs, this Cognac "Barrique 88" comes from the Grande Champagne terroir, the most prestigious in the Cognac production area. Aged for over 35 years in French oak barrels, it has been patiently reduced by the addition of distilled water, and is now offered at 56% alcohol, a good compromise between preserving taste and aroma, and power on the palate.
Amber color with fiery highlights. Aromas of great finesse: notes of white flowers, lime blossom, sweet spices and white pepper. A very round Cognac, very smooth on the palate. Enjoy as a digestif or dessert with a light fruit mousse.
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.
