Cognac "Barrique 2.1" - 50cl
Notes of iris, vanilla and essence of okoume for the latest addition to the "Barriques" range.
Terroir
Like all Michel Forgeron cognacs, this Cognac "Barrique 2.1" comes from the Grande Champagne region, the most prestigious of the Cognac production area.
Ageing
This Cognac "Barrique 2.1" has aged almost 20 years in French oak barrels in the cellars of Domaine Michel Forgeron. It has been patiently reduced by adding distilled water to be offered at 47 degrees of alcohol, a good compromise between preservation of taste and aromas and power in the mouth.
