The rustic commune of Saint-Sulpice-de-Cognac is centrally located in the smallest of the 6 crus: Borderies. With about 4,000 hectares of vineyards, this cru represents only 5% of all cognac. The soil composition here is mostly clay with flint on top of a layer of chalk. The domain of the Raffaud family is surrounded by their own vineyards. A lone passer-by would not suspect that there is a cognac odistillery behind the yellow / red facades, once inside the gates this family breathes cognac. Michel and Annie are enjoying their retirement, but the family continues the activities. This domain, "La Maison Rouge" only sells its young eau de vie to the big brands, never under its own name "Raffaud". After an extremely sympathetic phased acquaintance, we were able to bottle the dowries of Annie and Michel in '66. A cognac and pineau des charentes that is breathing character. This cellar was not large with less than 15 cognac casks, sometimes you don't need more to find an exceptional spirit. A pineau des Charentes of more than 50 years old, it is a rarity that you will rarely find. A pineau des Charentes more than 50 years old with this complexity, rich flavors and refinement is even more unique! Santé!
