Cognac GROSPERRIN - Borderies 1964 - N°64 - Lot 843 - 53.3%
Maison Grosperrin was created by Jean Grosperrin who arrived in Cognac in 1991 after having occupied the positions of agricultural worker, shepherd and sheep shearer during summer. In 1992, he became a field broker and set off to meet small farms in the region, in search of the rarest lots. But in 1999, he took a new turn and bought some barrels of old cognacs. Combined with his three stills, the history of Grosperrin Cognacs begins. In 2004, his son Guilhem took over the business. He builds up stocks and enriches the cellar with exceptional Cognacs. Also, he selects plots and initiates contracts with winegrowers. In 2012, he went to meet foreign importers and thus developed a network of amateurs and collectors.
Borderies 1964 Lot No. 843 is a very old Cognac bought from the widow of a man whose father settled in Burie in 1930, on one of the best slopes of the Borderies. This lot had been treasured by his family, in memory of a bygone era. This is an extremely rare lot, which was watched over for a long time by the broker who offered it to Maison Grosperrin. 277 litres were produced.
