SAB'S - La Fine

SAB'S - La Fine

La Fine comes from the distillation of wines and lees. It was aged in barrels for 5 years in Burgundy barrels then Mat' finished in Cognac barrels.
Without added caramel or other taste modifier, it is simply reduced to 46% with spring water.
Powerful and round nose, aromas of ripe fruit first then a pleasant rum-raisin finish. On the palate, the fineness is rich and soft and the grain velvety. We are under the spell of its woody aromas mixing roasting and exotic woods. The finish is persistent and precise.

🍸 It will make a wonderful digestive, but also excellent cocktails like Brandy Crusta or Fine à l'eau!

50cl - 46%

It's already been four years since our friend Mat' Sabbagh aka Sab's, took over the Pigneret family's traveling still in Beaune. Through perseverance and passion, he revives the village squares of this beautiful Burgundy that we adore, bringing together the winegrowers for a morning snack next to the still which distills lees and marc from the end of the harvest until the end of winter.

The profession of distiller and itinerant distiller is in the process of disappearing. Fifty years ago, there was one distiller per village in Burgundy. Today, there are only around ten left to perpetuate this tradition.
Sab's is the last traveling still in Burgundy, it distills all the best grapes of the region. The Distillery is based in Beaune, capital of great Burgundy wines. After the sale of the wines, they begin the winter tour which takes them from Paris hospital to Pommard, via Moroges.
They distill the marcs and wine lees from the most beautiful terroirs of Burgundy. They are also among the last to produce the AOC Marc de Bourgogne and Fine de Bourgogne.
