      The Know-How

      • The Vineyard

      Located in one of the four premier crus of the Cognac appellation area, the estate covers 52 ha, including 22 ha of vines.

      The subtle marriage of the noble grape varieties of Cognac, 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 double Charente distillation in traditional copper stills that the wine is transformed into eau-de-vie which, after a long aging process, will become cognac.


      • Aging

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


      • The assembly

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


      Come and discover and taste our Cognacs, our Pineaux but also our other ranges (Évasion Rosé, Vins de Pays de Cépage, Sparkling Wines).
