The history of the French Maison François Peyrot dates back to 1956 and is handed down from father to son, from generation to generation, sharing a passion for Cognac and a love for traditions. It’s in this way that in these 25 hectares of vineyards in Jarnac in the “Grande Champagne 1er Cru de Cognac”, grapes are grown that will give life to excellent liqueurs respecting the environment, excluding all sorts of pesticides and chemical fertilizers, preferring quality to quantity, with an eye to modern technology.
Cognac X.O. that is, Extra Old ages for more than 25 years in oak barrels, bringing with it a quantity of aromas that surprise the palate, and they know how to conquer Cognac lovers to the point that they can no longer be separated. It comes exclusively from the Les Bergeronnettes grape grown in Grande Champagne, bearing the highly prestigious denomination “1er Cru de Cognac”, as can be seen from a self-certification by François Peyrot himself.
