Cognac Park VS Carte Blanche

Product description

The light, vibrant character of Petite Champagne predominates this blend. Fresh, young, and soft in tannin, Cognac Park VS Carte Blanche is ideal for use in cocktails. To create this Cognac we blend eaux-de-vie from two regions - Fins Bois and Petite Champagne - and age a minimum of three years in lightly toasted barrels, with most of the blend spending closer to six years in barrel. "Our goal was to create an energetic Cognac that grants bartenders creative freedom or 'carte blanche' to use it as they wish in a cocktail, in a way that suits their personal style." - Master Blender, Jérôme Tessendier. The Cognac Park brand was created in 1995 and, at that time, was a new project between the Tessendier family and Dominic Park, a Scotsman who sought out the Tessendier family for their generations of experience in the Cognac trade. The distillery itself was founded in 1880, when Gaston Tessendier tended his family vineyards located in the prestigious growing area of the Borderies, acting on his ambition to create outstanding Cognac. Single-mindedly, Gaston learned to work his vineyards and later, with the help of his son, began distillation of his wines. The company has remained in the Tessendier family through four generations. Today, the current family estate remains at Domaine Du Buisson, its original site, housing the family’s vineyards and winery. It is composed of more than 25 hectares in the heart of one of the most exclusive growing regions, the Borderies.
