Frérot Extra is the grand return of the People’s Cognac: second of its name, first of its extravagance, standing on two crucial pillars: terroir and age. We sourced Cognacs that were aged for long decades from the Grande Champagne cru and blended it into the most sophisticated Hors d’Age Spirit.
The Cognac region is divided into six different crus with unique characters. Like Frérot XO, most Cognacs are blends of differently aged Spirits from various sub-regions – but Frérot Extra is different. Its DNA is 100% Grande Champagne, the “premier cru.”
‘Extra’ is a grade of Cognac that means the youngest Spirit in the blend is at least six years old. Frérot Extra goes beyond with its Eau-de-vies ranging between 30 and 50 years.
This blend delivers an exciting adventure that starts with a beautiful bouquet of raspberries, apricots and fresh orchard fruits. The nose evolves into a lush palate with notes of walnuts, candied fruits and caramel. Delicate and lavishly long finish; hints of tobacco and cardamom wrapping it all up with a generous amount of “rancio.”
