✨ Technical Specifications
First created in 1888 by Édouard Hine to celebrate the winegrowers' triumph over the devastating phylloxera epidemic, Triomphe is a legendary masterpiece from the house of Hine. This exceptional Cognac is an exquisite blend of around fifty selected eaux-de-vie sourced exclusively from the chalky soils of the Grande Champagne district, Cognac's premier cru. Matured slowly in French oak casks in the damp, cool cellars of Jarnac, Triomphe showcases the pinnacle of Hine's blending artistry. It offers an incredibly complex profile of dried fruits, tobacco, white wildflowers, and undergrowth, culminating in an exceptionally 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.
