Not sure to be at the right place but I’m improving (and buying) a lot of Cognac these lasts months.
I’d like to exchange with people doing to to share tastings, ideas to purchase.
So I do my first one cause this Cognac is really great and quite cheap : Fanny Fougerat “Le Notoire” Très Vieux Fins Bois 44,8%. Huge fruits, no wood at all. Serge Valentin did a nice review here.
I can highly recommend the independent bottler Malternative (Webwinkel - malternative-belgium). For me it’s a local guy called Pieter Knapen who really knows his stuff. He also has some GotA bottles in his shop en knows Sacha from Armagnac.de as well.
I sourced 1 bottled recently but not tasted : supposed to be really great (mean 91-92 for bloggers).
Good choice for the first one
And recently too, I bought the last one from their bottlings called Les Bons Vivants 2 which is a Petite Champagne 1973 from Grosperrin (53,6%) : first nose a bit fruity but not that much, it takes time then it opens a lot on fruits and spices with a very long finish. Very great.
Doesn’t look as if they have been released yet. They most likely will be available at Whizita.de, they are an important seller for VT and Kirsch. Unfortunately, they don’t ship to other EU countries, but probably someone from this group will be able to help. The same is true for whic.de
