Cognac GROSPERRIN - n°90 - Bois Ordinaires 1990 - Ile d'Oléron - Lot n°933 - 46.2%
The Grosperrin House was created by Jean Grosperrin who arrived in Cognac in 1991 after occupying the positions of agricultural worker, shepherd and sheep shearer in the summer. In 1992, he became a country broker and set out to meet small farms in the region, in search of the rarest lots. But in 1999, he took a new turn and bought a few casks of old cognacs. Combined with its three stills, the story of Grosperrin Cognacs begins. In 2004, it is his son Guilhem who takes over the company. It constitutes stocks and enriches the cellars of exceptional Cognacs. Also, he select plots and initiates contracts with winegrowers . In 2012, he went to meet the foreign importers and thus develops a network of amateurs and collectors.
This Cognac Bois Ordinaires No.90 comes from the commune of Saint Pierre d'Oléron. The small property where this Cognac was produced, and where it aged, ceased operations in 2007. This terroir with sandy soils gives the Cognac maritime accents, reinforced by island aging.
