We begin the second half of our Cognac-Expert Advent Calendar with a Mauxion Borderies Lot 45 Cognac. The Mauxion family traces its origins back to 1575, when Pierre Mauxion was born in the village of Houlette. Over thirteen generations, the family has remained rooted in the same estate. In 1743, Antoine Mauxion became the first family member to produce eaux-de-vie, beginning a tradition that has been carried forward by ten successive generations. Today, Mauxion Selection continues this legacy, maintaining traditional methods in vineyard care and the crafting of high-quality eaux-de-vie.
Mauxion Selection stands out by offering a range of single-cru expressions in various sizes. All their cognacs are sourced exclusively from the renowned terroirs of Grande Champagne, Petite Champagne, Borderies, and Fins Bois. To preserve the integrity and character of their eaux-de-vie, Mauxion Selection bottles its cognacs at cask strength, without blending or reduction. This approach allows the spirits to retain their natural complexity and depth, showcasing the unique qualities of each vintage and terroir.
