COGNAC FRAPIN

Founding and History

• Frapin Cognac traces its origins back to 1270 when the Frapin family established themselves as winegrowers in the Charente region of France. For over 20 generations, the family has been dedicated to producing fine wines and Cognac, and today, the Frapin estate is one of the most respected in the region. Located in the heart of Grande Champagne, the premier cru of Cognac, the estate spans over 240 hectares of vineyards, all within the Grande Champagne terroir.

• Frapin remains a family-owned business, deeply rooted in tradition, and focused on crafting high-quality Cognac. Their single-estate production method ensures complete control over the quality of their Cognac from vine to bottle.
