Grosperrin Fins Bois N°52-22 Héritage pour Passion for Whisky

A rare gem from the heart of the Cognac region: the Grosperrin Fins Bois N°52-22 Héritage pour Passion for Whisky is an exclusive bottling for true connoisseurs. This exceptional cognac is composed of grapes harvested in the years 1952 and 2022, beautifully blending past and present. Only 17 litres were ultimately bottled, divided over 24 bottles at a powerful yet elegant strength of 46.5%. This Fins Bois expression embodies Grosperrin's vision of heritage, craftsmanship, and timeless finesse.

Tasting Notes

Nose

The nose opens with refined notes of old wooden libraries, dried apricots, and a touch of orange zest. There’s a subtle hint of beeswax and aged leather, followed by aromas of candied fruits, walnuts, and a trace of clove. Complex and layered, the aroma evokes the ambiance of an antique study after the rain — mysterious, warm, and inviting.

Palate

On the palate, it’s silky and surprisingly vibrant. Flavours evolve from ripe peach and caramelised apple to deeper tones of cocoa, liquorice, and black tea. A gentle spiciness — cinnamon and a hint of nutmeg — adds depth. The balance between wood and fruit is astonishing; nothing dominates, everything harmonises.

Finish

The finish is long and impressive, lingering with notes of dried figs, oak, and a touch of espresso. A delicate minerality remains on the palate, joined by whispers of honey and orange blossom. A lasting epilogue that invites quiet reflection.
