      THE KNOW-HOW

      • The vineyard
      Located in one of the four first growths of the Cognac appellation area, the

      estate covers 52 hectares, including 22 hectares of vines.
      The subtle marriage of the noble grape varieties of the Cognac region, Ugni Blanc and Colombard for the whites, and Merlot and Cabernet for the rosés, combined with our best cognacs, give our pineaux fruitiness, harmony and elegance.

      • Distillation
      It is through the double distillation in traditional copper stills that the wine is transformed into eau-de-vie which, after a long ageing, will become cognac.

      • Ageing
      Housed in oak barrels, our products, in the quiet of our cellars, after many years of aging, will give their best aromas.

      • The blending
      The art of making subtle combinations of different eaux-de-vie for each range of cognac (XO, VSOP, ...).

      Come to discover and taste our Cognacs, our

      Pineaux but also our other ranges (Évasion Rosé, Vins de Pays de Cépage, Vins Mousseux).
