Louis Royer XO Cognac 70cl

Description

Louis Royer: a legacy of 170 years To understand the Louis Royer signature, we must go back to 1853. Cellar master and son of a renowned stonemason, Louis Royer founded his cognac house in his name, in Jarnac. It is in this small town perceived as “”the cradle of craft cognacs”” that the brand lives its first hours. Insatiable curious and passionate beekeeper, he chose the bee as his emblem. A symbol that inspires mutual aid, the strength of a group and individuality. Louis Royer makes this signature the common thread of his work. He infuses his home with humanism, generosity, patience, and a love of a job well done, not to say perfect. The result is exceptional cognacs, which reveal the best of the fruit. 170 years later, the company has been passed down from generation to generation and today belongs to the Picard Wines and Spirits group, also a French family group. Transmission at the service of excellence The desire to perpetuate family traditions is fully in line with Louis Royer’s current DNA. The house strives to develop cognacs over the long term, from grapes produced in the two Charentes. The oak barrels continue to be aged in the authentic cellars on the banks of the river. Owner of a 40-hectare estate in the prestigious Grande Champagne region, Louis Royer collaborates with nearly 70 winegrowers, distillers, and distillers by profession. The work thus begins in the vineyard to produce a white wine whose quality will make it possible to obtain the best eaux-de-vie. This is followed by distillation in the Aumagne distillery composed of 9 copper stills in Charentais. The ageing stage is carried out in the Louis Royer cellars in Jarnac. The latter benefit from the humidity brought by the river, which gives a beautiful roundness to the cognacs. Finally, the blending is carried out by the cellar master whose mission is to preserve the quality and tradition of the brand’s cognacs. This cycle of creation illustrates this desire to preserve Louis Royer know-how while transmitting it to new generations.
