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.
🍾 wine.about_producer
Established in Jarnac in 1763 and renamed Thomas Hine & Co. in 1817, Hine is one of the oldest and most prestigious houses in Cognac, France, celebrated for its exquisite, terroir-driven spirits. Situated along the banks of the Charente River at 16 Quai de l'Orangerie, 16200 Jarnac, the house is globally renowned for its exceptional single-vintage Cognacs, sourced predominantly from the premier crus of Grande and Petite Champagne. Hine's signature production philosophy includes the rare tradition of 'Early Landed' vintages, which are shipped to the United Kingdom to age in the damp, cool cellars of Bristol, resulting in remarkably delicate and floral profiles. Today, Hine continues to craft legendary expressions such as the Antique Premier Cru XO, Triomphe, and the single-estate Domaines Hine Bonneuil, maintaining an uncompromising standard of elegance that has earned them a Royal Warrant from Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
