MAXIME TRIJOL Cognac Petite Champagne 70cl 1988y 40%

Single-Cru Grande Champagne Vintage from Maxime Trijol

Family values are integral to every process at the Maxime Trijol vineyards, craftsmanship and knowledge have been passed down through 6 generations in order to produce some of the finest Cognacs in the prestigious Grande Champagne region. The 1988 Grande Champagne Cognac is a prime example of the passion and patience required to create something simply magical.

Located in the heart of the Cognac, only a few miles from Cognac itself, the vineyard spreads across the premier crus of Grande Champagne and Petite Champagne, growing almost exclusively Ugni Blanc grapes. This particular vintage was an excellent year for the harvest, which took place at the end of summer, producing potent and powerful grapes for the harvest, rich in flavors ready to be transformed into refined eaux-de-vie.

When harvested, the Trijol family begin work immediately, pressing the fruit just after it is picked and starting the fermentation process as soon as possible. These two steps are crucial according to Trijol family values, and are highly influential in creating the high quality eaux-de-vie used in their Cognac production.

Everything is done in-house, from harvesting to distilling and bottling, meaning complete control over the production process and the assurance of high quality of these artisanal creations.
