Cognac Jean Fillioux Très Vieux is a classic expression of very old Grande Champagne cognac, crafted from long-aged eaux-de-vie matured in French oak barrels. The style is rich and composed, showing aromas of vanilla, orange marmalade, quince and ripe pear, layered with gentle spice and subtle exotic fruit notes.
On the palate it is full, smooth and well-structured, with pronounced depth and a long, elegant finish typical of extended aging. Très Vieux represents the traditional house style of Jean Fillioux, focusing on maturity, balance and a clear expression of Grande Champagne terroir rather than overt oak or sweetness.
