FAQs For Chateau de Montifaud XO Cognac Petite Champagne

How is it made?

This XO is crafted exclusively from Ugni Blanc grapes grown in Grande Champagne, the premier cru of Cognac. Distilled twice in traditional copper pot stills, the spirit retains purity, aromatic finesse and the hallmark floral‑fruit clarity of the region.

It is then matured for decades in French oak barrels, allowing slow oxidation and deep flavour development. This extended ageing qualifies it as XO (Extra Old) and gives the Cognac its velvety texture, warm spice and beautifully integrated fruit‑oak balance.

What does XO mean?

XO stands for Extra Old, meaning the youngest eaux-de-vie in the blend has been aged for at least 10 years, though many XO Cognacs contain much older spirits.

How should I store this spirit?

Store upright in a cool, dark place. Cognac remains stable after opening.

Does Cognac age in the bottle?

No its character is shaped in oak, not in bottle.
