Five traditional ageing cellars jealousy guard the prestigious Beaulon Cognac and Pineau behind their thick stone walls. More than thirty years’ harvests lie quietly maturing in small oak barrels over many decades…The cellars are to be found at Lorignac, their roofs blackened by the “Torula” fungus make them and their vocation easily distinguishable.
Inside the “blond” barrels are stacked vertically above a beaten earth floor, the latter favours evaporation of the ethers. This evaporation is poetically known as “the angel’s share”, it concentrates the aromas and enriches the wonderful fragrances of Beaulon’s Cognac and Pineau.
The Paradise cellar is where the oldest and most precious “eaux de vie” are stored, a heritage that bears witness to all those men and women whose passion and know-how have gone before.
