This VSOP is a blend of 75% Fins Bois and 25% Borderies cognac crus (cru is French term for growth zones) of France. These crus are ideal for the production of grapes used to make the cognac.
Once the grapes from these crus are harvested, they are pressed and the remaining grape juice is fermented in stainless steel fermentation tanks. The resultant eaux de vie is then distilled twice through a traditional, alambic Charentais still.
Bache-Gabrielsen’s cognas are produced in a modern, light, fresh style, its richly fruited notes are deeply reminiscent of rustic life in Cognac.
VSOP stands for "Very Superior Old Pale" Cognac, that is crafted from eaux-de-vie aged at least four years. Matured in oak casks for around 8 years this expression is pale gold in color, with fresh rich notes of bouquets of ripe fruit. It offers a rounded flavors with a distinctive, characterful finish.
