Cognac Augier Le Sauvage Petit Champagne Cognac, NV

Gusbourne Estate Blanc de Blancs 2011

Founded by Philippe Augier in 1643, this historic Cognac house has been revived since its takeover by Pernod Ricard in 2013. Le Sauvage is made with Ugni Blanc planted in the chalky soils of Petite Champagne. Its appealing intensity is achieved by distilling the wine on its fine lees. 30187357 - PAGE 344 Darroze Bas-Armagnac Les Grands Assemblages 30 year old A mature Bas-Armagnac bottled by Darroze for their Grands Assemblages range.
