This vintage Cognac is distilled in 1978 from Fins Bois and bottled at cask strength. Its 58% ABV is linked to ageing in a particularly dry cellar. Mauxion Selection does not chill-filter or add colouring to this bottling, which comes in a wooden box.
Decades of ageing in oak casks give a Cognac showing fruit and vanilla alongside floral and woody accents. Spice is prominent on the palate, while the aroma carries a finer rancio note. The Mauxion family has been rooted in Houlette since the 16th century, with Antoine Mauxion beginning to make eaux-de-vie from his own vineyard grapes in 1743.
Tasting Notes
Intense dried fruit and vanilla notes alongside cedar wood and white flowers, with a very delicate rancio tone.
Clear and full-bodied opening; spice notes shape the palate, with sweet aromas and a hint of oak.
Very long finish, accompanied by fine tannins.
