    • The Alembic Gallery, what a pretty name

      Is it an Art gallery? Yes, “Viticultural Art”. Where secrets and traditions mingle. Where for a moment we let ourselves be tamed, intoxicated by “the part of the Angels”.

      Distilled Art

      Philippe Godard and his team welcome you in an atypical setting, surrounded by presses, magic cauldrons and Collection Stills (1850).

      During a documented visit we will explain to you:

      • The different stages of distillation.
      • The secrets of blending prestigious Cognac.
      • The Work of Time and its aging cellar.
      • Tales and Legends of Pineau des Charentes.
      • The manufacturing workshop and bottling.


      Accompanied by a GOURMET Tasting.


      Philippe Godard Cognacs, all 1er Cru de Grande Champagne. Cognac Apéritif, VSOP, Napoléon,

      Whether they are called Pineau des Charentes, Salted Caramel Flower, Pear with Cognac, Orange or Almond with Cognac, Red Cherry, Quince Sap, Secret à la Noix and 20 other unusual cocktails. They know how to make us happy before or after the meal, they are eaten wisely.

      Free visit and tasting:

      • for individuals without an appointment.
      • for groups by appointment.
      • easy access - coach parking.
