Balanced and refined, the 1997 Vintage captures the pure expression of the Grande Champagne terroir, the most prestigious cru in Cognac. Its character was shaped by a year of contrasting weather patterns: following an early and rapid flowering, a cool and rainy June and July gave way to a sunnier August, promoting harmonious grape maturation. The harvest proved both abundant and of excellent quality, producing eaux-de-vie combining freshness and complexity.
Distilled on the lees and aged primarily in a humid cellar, this vintage reveals remarkable aromatic richness, great finesse, and impressive length on the palate. An authentic and noble expression of its origin, crafted for connoisseurs seeking depth and elegance.
The Frapin House, founded in 1270, is one of the oldest and most prestigious cognac houses in the Grande Champagne region, the most coveted area for cognac production. A true symbol of excellence and tradition, Frapin combines centuries of expertise with a modern vision to produce exceptional cognacs.
Frapin is distinguished by its unique terroir, where the vines, grown on limestone soils, benefit from an ideal climate for producing superior-quality grapes. Frapin cognacs come exclusively from Grande Champagne, giving each expression an unparalleled aromatic richness. Aging in oak barrels, often in older barrels, imparts a great complexity, woody aromas, and remarkable depth to their cognacs.
Among the house’s flagship cuvées, the Frapin VSOP offers a great balance between fruity and spicy notes, while the Frapin XO is more complex, with hints of dried fruits, honey, and leather. The Frapin Château de Fontpinot is a rare vintage, often considered the pinnacle of the house, offering exceptional richness and depth.
The Frapin House is a guarantee of quality, offering refined, elegant, and character-filled cognacs that delight connoisseurs worldwide.
