Take advantage of your stay with us to visit the wineries, meet the producers and enter the distilleries to understand the steps involved in making this internationally renowned eau de vie! From vineyard to cooperage to blending, cognac (AOC) will hold no secrets for you. Whether you're a beginner, an amateur or a connoisseur, the experience will be unforgettable.
The Cognac production area is the largest in France after Bordeaux. It stretches across the two departments of Charente and extends into a few communes in Deux-Sèvres and Dordogne. Cognac can only be marketed after a minimum of 2 years' ageing in oak barrels. If you want to know everything there is to know about cognac, the Musée des Arts du Cognac, housed in a mansion in the old town of Cognac, offers a 1,600 m² showcase of the world of this famous eau-de-vie, from its production to the technical, industrial and social history of cognac and the town that gave it its name.

Another of the region's must-try beverages is Pineau des Charentes. White, red or rosé, it offers a unique palette of subtle aromas, depending on the grapes used to make it. This singular wine is the fruit of the marriage (called mutage) between grape juice and cognac brandy, produced in the appellation area. Each Pineau des Charentes is unique: not one, but many Pineau des Charentes, born of the know-how of the winegrowers and long ageing in oak barrels.
