Made with whole cluster, spontaneous fermentation from grapes grown midway up the hill in the Champs Pimonts climat. A relative bargain for a Burgundy 1er Cru in these times of exceedingly high prices for the region. Available in Canada only at Ellement; talk about exclusive!
Handcrafted Grenache with the grape's signature combination of high-toned red fruit and floral notes and punchy high alcohol. This wine comes from Chateauneuf-du-Pape vineyards but is declassified to Vin de France because the appellation favours blended wines.
Bourgoin's VSOP Cognac gets 5 years in barrel before release and is a great addition to the home bar for cocktails or digestif. Pale in colour with a good concentration of stewed pear aromas and a hint of vanilla.
This XO Cognac from our smallest artisan Cognac producer is distilled with a strong component of lees (yeast) in the base wine that gives a major aromatic shift to the spirit that's honoured by bottling as a single vintage Cognac. Expect fresh fruits and cut hay to jump out of the glass, unlike most XO level spirits.
Bourgoin Cognac's most unique XO Cognac gets brought down to 45% alcohol with a blend of fresh and sea waters to replicate the flavour of a Cognac transported by barrels at sea. Pale in colour, but very flavourful with a strong element of salted toffee.
