✨ Technical Specifications
Hine Triomphe was originally created in 1888 by Édouard Hine to celebrate the winegrowers' triumph over the devastating phylloxera epidemic that had threatened to destroy the vineyards of Cognac. This exceptional blend is crafted from around fifty select, fully matured eaux-de-vie sourced exclusively from the Grande Champagne district, the premier cru of the region. Aged for decades in French oak casks within the damp, cool cellars of Jarnac, Triomphe is celebrated for its complexity, elegance, and depth, offering a rich sensory journey of dried fruits, tobacco, white wildflowers, and subtle spices, culminating in an extraordinarily long, velvety finish.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1763 along the banks of the Charente River in Jarnac, Thomas Hine & Co. represents one of Cognac's most distinguished artisanal houses, underscored by being the sole cognac house to hold a British Royal Warrant since 1962. Hine centers its philosophy on the premier crus of Grande and Petite Champagne, farming 115 hectares across the chalk-dominant, undulating hillsides of Bonneuil under certified sustainable practices (HVE and CEC). Under long-standing Cellar Master Eric Forget, the house champions the belief that monumental cognac begins as pristine white wine. Vinified exclusively from Ugni Blanc, the wines undergo double distillation on fine lees in traditional Charentais copper pot stills, followed by aging in lightly toasted, fine-grained French oak casks to preserve floral vivacity and mineral nuance. Renowned for its single-estate and single-vintage bottlings, Hine is celebrated globally for benchmarks such as Antique XO Premier Cru, Homage Grand Cru, and its legendary Early Landed vintages matured in humid British cellars.
