Older than a standard VSOP, vanilla, sandalwood and caramel will stun your taste buds.
Fins Bois Cognac are less suited to long ageing than Cognac made from Champagne or Borderies grapes. Over time, they reveal a less intense aromatic bouquet than the other crus. Nevertheless, the Fins Bois cru, which surrounds the Champagne and Borderies vineyards, has a wide variety of terroirs, giving rise to a number of little gems.
Although the Fins Bois vineyards account for 42 % of the area planted with Cognac appellation wines, Cognac with the "Cognac Fins Bois" AOP is a rarity on the market. In fact, these Cognac make up the vast majority of the young, VS-type categories produced by the trading houses. These young Cognac account for almost 60 % of Cognac sales worldwide. That just goes to show the importance of Fins Bois Cognac !
