What it tastes like.

Jean Fillioux Cognac VSOP Grande Champagne (the best part of ) 6 years -fresh figs, citrus fruits, muscat, almond paste, orange blossom, subtly spicy... 100% Ugni Blanc 40% 700ml

Subtil & So, the new VSOP Cognac Grande Champagne by Jean Fillioux. With the noble bottling, the house once again proves that the Grande Champagne, originally known for its old cognacs, can also produce excellent younger qualities. The proof: a coveted gold medal from the Spirits Selection by Concours Mondiale 2021 and a wonderfully harmonious profile of fruity freshness and warm spiciness.

The 4 to 6-year-old VSOP comes from the picturesque La Pouyade winery, which has been family-owned since 1894 and is completely independent to this day. It is surrounded by 25 hectares of the finest white wine grapes. They thrive in the "Golden Triangle", the heart of Grande Champagne. They are cherished and loved in the fifth generation by Christophe Fillioux and his family, who are one with their vineyard. You can taste that in their extremely aromatic cognacs – and today they are valued around the world.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: fruity and delicately floral.

Palate: Fresh figs and citrus blend with nutmeg, almond paste and orange blossom.

Finish: Enjoyable and warming with subtle spice.

About Jean Fillioux.

Cognac β€” Grande Champagne 1er Cru (Juillac-le-Coq) Β·Est. 1880

Jean Fillioux is a five-generation Cognac house in Juillac-le-Coq, in the heart of Grande Champagne β€” the 1er Cru of Cognac. HonorΓ© Fillioux founded the house in 1880; the family acquired the Domaine de la Pouyade estate in 1894, which has remained the production base ever since. The estate covers 25 hectares of Grande Champagne vineyards. The house produces only from its own grapes, distilled and aged on-site. Christophe Fillioux took over from his father Pascal in 2015 as the fifth generation.

Bottle questions

Before you open it.

A few practical answers for storage, delivery, and choosing the right bottle.

How should I store it before opening?

Keep it somewhere cool, dark, and steady. Wine prefers cellar temperature; spirits are happier away from heat and direct sunlight.

How long will it keep once opened?

Wine changes quickly after opening; spirits and liqueurs generally hold longer if capped tightly and kept out of heat. If it is a special bottle, ask before opening and the team can give product-specific guidance.

Can I ask for a similar bottle?

Yes. Contact Caravan with this bottle name and the occasion; the team can suggest a close match, a safer gift, or a step up or down in price.

How is it packed for delivery?

Orders are packed in bottle-safe cartons. If anything arrives damaged or looks wrong, contact the team with your order number and a photo so they can sort the next step.

What about hot weather shipping?

The team avoids making one-size-fits-all promises around heat and carrier timing. For heat-sensitive or cellar bottles, contact Caravan before ordering and they can advise the safest dispatch window.

Why Caravan backs Jean Fillioux

Cognac β€” Grande Champagne 1er Cru (Juillac-le-Coq)

HonorΓ© Fillioux founded the Jean Fillioux Cognac house in 1880, working initially from his wife's family vineyard near Angeac-Champagne (the 'Puits' property). In 1894 the family acquired the Domaine de la Pouyade β€” the imposing residence and estate vineyard at Juillac-le-Coq in the heart of Grande Champagne β€” which has served as the production base ever since. The estate is 1er Cru classified, the highest tier within the Cognac AOC, recognised since 1909 for the chalky soils that produce the longest-cellaring Cognac eaux-de-vie.

Five generations have run the house since HonorΓ©, with Christophe Fillioux taking over from his father Pascal in 2015. The estate is 25 hectares of Grande Champagne vineyard; the house works as a single-estate producer rather than a nΓ©gociant β€” distilling its own grapes, ageing in its own cellars, and bottling under the family name. The range covers VSOP, NapolΓ©on, XO, RΓ©serve Familiale, the Cep d'Or XO (13–15 yrs Grande Champagne 1er Cru), and the deep cellar of single-vintage releases β€” most famously the 1953 Cognac.
