Harvesting, distillation, and aging are all carried out at the estate. As the only XO Frapin to offer a blend of cognacs from both humid and dry cellars, it bridges these two worlds of slow maturation, gaining roundness and smoothness from one, while borrowing finesse and elegance from the other.

"On the palate, the '15 years old' reveals itself as immediately complex. The aromas of wood and vanilla respond to notes of dried fruits and toasted bread. The spicy finish lingers on beautifully. This XO cognac 'Brut de fût' transitions directly from barrel to bottle without undergoing any transformation, its high proof of 45.3 bringing strength and complexity. To preserve its aromatic richness and gustatory integrity, this cognac is not cold-filtered. This originality guarantees aromatic richness." Patrice Piveteau, Master Cellar.
