Product Information

Fanny Fougerat is a fourth generation distiller. Her family had been selling to the big houses that dominate Cognac, but she has decided to redefine the terms. She and her partner farm 30 HA of Ugni Blanc, primarily in Borderies but also in Fin Bois. For those Cognac nerds out there, Borderies needs no introduction - it is the smallest cru and highly sought after. It is a plateau of clay and limestone soil that offers ideal sun exposure, good drainage and allows for deep root development. The eaux-de-vie from Borderies is known to be floral and elegant and also to build complexity more quickly and show its many facets at a younger age. Aromatically it is the Burgundy of Cognac.

Fanny's philosophy takes the Burgundy comparison a step further. She is making terroir driven Cognac. She understands the unique nature of her area and also the unique nature of each vineyard, each harvest, each distillation and each barrel. Her Cognac is never blended. Every bottle from every release is labelled with barrel number and bottle number. Each barrel has 450 bottles - and those 450 bottle are unique unto themselves.

Petite cigüe is very fresh and easy to approach, despite its young age. A fruity, luscious and tangy cognac a cognac to be savoured wholeheartedly, for a moment of shared pleasure.

From Cognac, france. Coming from four generations of winemaker and distiller, Fanny distills all of her cognacs on the family estate. Distillation is in two passes. One batch of 100% ugni blanc. From the fin bois, clay and muddy soil.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Beautifully balanced with orchard fruits and zesty citrus elements. A strong aroma of green grape offers a refreshingly light introduction to a bold Cognac.

Palate: Bold, fruity and tangy notes come together in harmony. Juicy tones are contrasted with a zesty citrus kick offering a surprisingly pleasant acidity.

Finish: Medium finish with plenty of grapiness and citrus.
