Frapin – a name that has stood for the best of Grande Champagne since 1270. Seven centuries in one family, a single vineyard: the Premier Cru of Cognacs.
On over 240 hectares of their own vineyards, the raw material for cognacs grows, which are produced entirely on the estate – from harvesting and distillation to aging in the barrel. No purchases, no compromises. Only the terroir, time, and the craftsmanship of a family that has remained true to its path.
The result: Cognacs with depth, elegance and a distinctive character that tells a story in every sip.

Frapin —
seven centuries of Grande Champagne, one estate, one terroir
Frapin is not a Négociant that buys and assembles distillates — the estate in the Grande Champagne has been working completely vertically since 1270: cultivation, harvest, distillation and barrel aging take place on the same terrain that the family has been farming for over 20 generations. Over 240 hectares of their own vineyards in the Premier Cru of Cognac — that is an exception in this appellation, not a matter of course.
The Grande Champagne owes its reputation to the limestone soil, which gives the Ugni Blanc vines a fine acidity and exceptional distillability. Frapin consistently uses this terroir: no foreign raw material enters the barrels, no vintage is stretched by purchases. What matures in the cellar is exclusively the result of this one place — and the time that a good Cognac needs.
In the glass, Frapin's Cognacs show a characteristic elegance: dried apricot, beeswax, a hint of rancio in the older bottlings. Those who drink Cognac neat — in a wide glass, without ice — will find bottlings here that justify this moment.
