History

To the best of our knowledge, no other Cognac House can claim to have earlier origins, combining the practice of distilling Premier Cru Cognac with the consistency of the domain name.

Our ADN

The art of distillation

For centuries, the distillation procedure has stayed unchanged.

The traditionally shaped still from the Charente Region is the same. The distillation is carried out in 2 steps:

  • 1st step: The first draft is called “brouillis” and is between 28% to 32% alcohol volume.
  • 2nd step: The “brouillis” is distilled a second time and this procedure is called “La bonne chauffe” (the good brew).

The “head and tail” of this distillation are removed and “the heart” (le cœur) kept. This procedure is very delicate; the first vapors “the head” (la tête) and the last one “the tail” (la queue), are stored separately and are reintroduced in another distillation.

The liquid obtained from “the heart” will become the cognac that has already taken on the first elements of its personality. Each cycle lasts 24hrs and demands attention, supervision and skill.

The geographical area for cognac production has been defined by decree on May 1st 1909. The region is divided in 6 “crus” growing areas.

The Grande Fine Champagne is the “cru” growing right in the center of the Region.
