Get to know: Chateau de Montifaud VSOP 10 Year Old Petite Champagne (70cl, 40%)

Tasting Note

Golden colour, perfect balance, a beautiful structure and already a great length in the mouth. Lots of finesse, notes of vine flower with an evolution towards notes of dried flowers.
This VSOP is also fruity (pear, apricot), very round, mellow and supple in the mouth. A cognac to be enjoyed anytime.

Producer Info

Chteau de Montifaud is very much a family enterprise with Michel and Catherine Vallet, their son Laurent and his wife Elodie all involved. This is lovely, unadulterated pure, fine, perfumed cognac. A family domaine and distillery. 125 hectares of vineyard in the heart of the Archiac where the Grande and Petite Champagne meet, much sought after by the larger Houses.

On the strength of this exceptional terroir, they work daily to ensure that their vineyard is managed in a sustainable manner. They make it a point of honour to apply the artisanal techniques passed down from father to son while combining the new technologies of today, allowing them to accentuate the natural qualities of the “eaux-de-vie”: floral notes, finesse and elegance on the nose, roundness, suppleness and length in the mouth.
