Tiffon 1995 Grande Champagne Cognac
A new release from Tiffon is the Tiffon 1995 Grande Champagne vintage. Tiffon, which dates back to 1875, is still a family run business based in Jarnac with the family home, Chateau de Triac, just 5 kms away. The Chateau, which was demolished in the Hundred Years’ War, is in Fins Bois, home to some of their 40 hectares of vines. They have other vineyards in Grande Champagne. This 1995 vintage comes from Grande Champagne and as with most 20 year old cognacs from the top cru, should be elegant with good length. Before you rush out and buy it, however, take a look at another single estate, 1995, Grande Champagne cognac. The Hermitage 1995 is approximately one third cheaper to buy and is already a Gold medal winner; clearly we are not the only ones who think it is sublime!
