Limited Edition Cognac
Jean Fillioux 1er Cru de Cognac ‘Trés Vieux’ XO
Appellation Cognac Grande Champagne Contrôlée
(Very Limited Quantity – CI$130 per 70cl bottle in Presentation Box)
Founded in 1880 by Honoré Fillioux, the company is now run by his great-grand-son Pascal J. Fillioux. The vineyards lie in the heart of the Grande Champagne in the "golden triangle": Verrières, Angeac-Champagne and Juillac-le-Coq. It’s well known that this area yields the most delicate and finest Cognacs, and requires long oak barrel ageing to achieve maturity: the ageing is the key. Nothing will be done without Pascal's full control, from wines to labels and from soil to bottle. It's a one-man-show. The men in the Fillioux dynasty have each borne a great love to their region and their soil. They have, from generation to generation, been blessed with an exceptional "nose": that one, unique, talent that sets apart those who love greatness and those who are actually able to create it.The House of Jean Fillioux belongs to a select group of traditional family estates who have successfully defended their upper quality niche over several decades by producing consistently authentic Cognacs that rest on century-old traditions, patience and love to become the masterpieces true connoisseurs appreciate.
‘Very full, noble Cognac of a classic cut with an appetizing aroma of orange marmalade, pears, quince, bananas, citrus, sandalwood and old port. Powerful aftertaste with overtones of tropical fruits’.
The Cognac Guide.
‘Lingering on the palate and finely complex, this Cognac is your perfect end-of-evening companion to offer your friends. A pure Fillioux-family product, it combines elegance and strength without pretentiousness’.
Patrice Franck, Sommelier President of the South-West of France.
