The wine region of Cognac

Six signature ranked crus: Grande Champagne the most prestigious (elegance and length), fine Petite Champagne, round and floral Borderies, fruity Fins Bois, rustic Bons Bois, ordinary Bois. Spirits with grape, white flowers, dried fruits, vanilla, leather, spice and noble rancio notes — from young VS to long-aged XO. Ugni Blanc king (98%), Folle Blanche, Colombard.
The word of the wine: Rootstock
American vine on which a French vine is grafted. This is the consequence of the phylloxera that destroyed the vineyard at the end of the 19th century: after much trial and error, it was discovered that the "pest" spared the roots of the American vines, and the technique became widespread.
