| The Château: |
|
For 800 years and 28 generations, the Count's family has earned a reputation of making great wines. Its private estate or "Domaine Prive" is situated between Bordeaux and Cognac with a unique terroir of Archiac, rich with minerals. The estate's ancestral savoir-faire combined with carefully considered traditional production methods gives the cognac a distinct and bold character. This handcrafted cognac has for years been monopolized by the local population - finally making its debut in the United States as one of the premier cognacs.
