    • The Vallein Tercinier Family welcomes you to discover the principle of distillation , the magic of an aging cellar, and the rich aromas of Cognac through the ages.


      Georges Vallein would undoubtedly be happy to see that his Estate continues to perpetuate the tradition of Cognac and that those who come there experience a moment of happiness.

      The charm of old stones, the comfort of good walls that keep the cool, the calm of the countryside, this is what the Vallein Tercinier Family wants to share. This is the reason why the gîtes were created.

      The Cellar Master selects the eaux-de-vie that will be aged, reduced, and used in blends. He is always looking to the future and must anticipate. For a cognac to be old and good, it must have been thought of 20 years in advance!

      For 6 generations, the Vallein Tercinier family has operated the Forges estate in Chermignac.

      Specializing in Cognac, Pineau des Charentes and the creation of liqueurs and cocktails, the watchword remains the same: Produce GOOD products, respect tradition, nature and those who trust us.

      After the visit, the tasting (for those who do not drive!) allows you to discover an aroma and a taste of the words.

      Appointments are available for the full tour, and tastings are available without appointment. Free guided tours are available.
      Opening hours: 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. and 2 p.m. to 5 p.m.

      Closed on Sundays.

    The staff are extremely friendly and the tour itself offers you a look at artisanal, independent cognac production. A very distinct experience from touring one of the core four houses - and worth doing if you’re spending a day in Cognac
