Augier, established in 1643 by Philippe Augier, is now owned by Pernod Ricard and focuses on terroir-driven styles. Le Sauvage is a cognac made from ugni blanc grown in Petite Champagne, and it is bottled without chill filtration. This cognac is rich and dense, with a range of flavors. The aroma is full of tropical fruits, while the taste is dominated by citrus and stone fruit. Tangerine, grapefruit, nectarine, and plum all contribute to the flavor profile. The addition of clove, black pepper, and bittersweet chocolate bring spice and earthiness to the mix. Although the finish is somewhat drying, the fresh fruit flavors linger.
