Painturaud Frères XO

Founded in 1804, the estate was rebuilt and operated at the end of the XIXᵉ century by Hippolyte Painturaud, after the great phylloxera crisis. In 1934, Jacques-Guy Painturaud decided to market his Cognacs and Pineaux des Charentes under his own name, thus distinguishing himself from the major trading houses. Maison Painturaud Frères was born.

Since then, four generations have perpetuated this exceptional know-how. In 2010, Jean-Philippe, Vincent, Matthieu and Emmanuel took over the management of Domaine, passionately pursuing the production of authentic, refined and traditional Cognacs and pineaux.

Located in the heart of Grande Champagne, 1er Cru de l'appellation Cognac, the 40-hectare vineyard lies on an exceptional terroir. Its clay-limestone slopes give the eaux-de-vie an incomparable finesse, enabling them to age for decades in oak barrels. Concerned about pRéserver its environment, Maison Painturaud Frères has been practicing integrated viticulture for over 20 years, and in 2017 was awarded level 3 Haute Valeur Environnementale (HVE) certification, the highest distinction in the field.

Mastering every stage in the elaboration of its Cognacs, the House owns its own still and ages its eaux-de-vie in its cellars for 5 years, 10 years... even 80 years and more. Then comes the art of blending, where expertise handed down from generation to generation achieves perfect harmony. Each bottle embodies the soul of a unique terroir and the fruit of meticulous craftsmanship, offering connoisseurs an unforgettable Rare experience.
