Overview

Follow me through the vineyards of Cognac and discover all the secrets of the famous brandy by visiting some nice and warm welcoming familial estates. Out the beaten tracks, the small producers are the soul of the country.

Did you know that? 95% of the market are in the hands of 4 very well-known big brands, while 95% of the vineyards are in the hands of 5000 vinegrowers… If you chose to tour Cognac area with me, you can expect to have a bit of mud on your shoes and to shake some real and authentic vinegrowers hands !
