Silky whispers of chalky earth rise like a delicate mist, unveiling a spirit shaped by millennia of marine fossils beneath sun-drenched, limestone-rich hills.

Here, every drop speaks of refined elegance, coaxed from vineyards where nature’s precision meets the art of patient aging.

Storage advice

For optimal storage of Cognac whether unopened or opened follow these practical guidelines focusing on temperature light sealing bottle position humidity and special considerations:

- Temperature: Maintain a stable cool environment between 59 and 68°F (15 to 20°C). Avoid heat or cold extremes as heat can cause expansion damaging the seal cork or bottle and cold can dull flavors.

- Light Exposure: Store Cognac in a dark place away from direct sunlight and strong artificial light as light can degrade its quality over time.

- Sealing: Ensure the bottle is tightly sealed to prevent air ingress which can oxidize the spirit and alter its taste. For opened bottles keep the original cork or stopper firmly in place. For rare or expensive Cognacs consider transferring contents to a smaller bottle or using a specialized stopper device to minimize air contact.

- Bottle Position: Always store Cognac upright. Unlike wine the high alcohol content can degrade cork if in constant contact potentially tainting the Cognac. Upright storage prevents this issue and preserves the cork’s integrity.

- Humidity: Maintain moderate humidity levels around 50-70% to prevent cork drying out which could compromise the seal. However avoid excessive humidity that may damage bottle labels.

- Special Storage Tips:
- Avoid storing near heat sources such as radiators or appliances and in places with frequent temperature fluctuations or vibrations as these can negatively influence the Cognac's stability and aging process.
- Do not refrigerate Cognac; cooler than recommended temperatures can dull its flavors.
- A cellar or a dedicated liquor cabinet with controlled conditions is ideal due to its stable temperature and humidity.

By adhering to these guidelines you help preserve the Cognac’s flavor aroma and overall quality for extended enjoyment.
