A de Fussigny XO Fine Champagne Cognac is a mature and refined expression crafted from a blend of carefully selected eaux-de-vie exclusively from the Grande and Petite Champagne crus, the premier terroirs of the Cognac region. Aged well beyond the minimum requirement for XO in French oak barrels, it develops depth and aromatic complexity while maintaining balance and elegance.
On the nose it reveals ripe and layered notes of dried fruits, candied citrus peel, honeyed spice, vanilla and subtle floral undertones, supported by well-integrated oak. On the palate it is smooth and well-structured, with a rounded texture, balanced acidity and a long, lingering finish where warmth and fruit richness persist in harmony.
Producer

The house works primarily with Fine Champagne blends, combining eaux-de-vie from Grande and Petite Champagne to achieve balance and aromatic depth. Production focuses on careful selection and maturation of eaux-de-vie in French oak, preserving fruit character while allowing complexity to develop gradually.
The style of A de Fussigny Cognacs is generally elegant and approachable, marked by floral notes, ripe fruit, gentle spice, and well-integrated oak. Alongside traditional craftsmanship, the brand is also recognized for its modern presentation and contemporary positioning within the Cognac category.
