Gautier
In the damp river cellars above the Osme, Cognac, Charentes, is where Maison Gautier has let time do the talking since its royal founding charter of 1755. The old watermill in Aigre shapes a humid microclimate that slows ageing, softens edges and builds a quietly luxurious texture.
Distillation follows the region’s canon: double distillation in Charentais copper pot stills from carefully selected base wines within the AOC Cognac. From there, the craft becomes invisible—cask selection, gentle racking, patient monitoring, and the art of blending.
French oak, often Limousin or Tronçais, gives structure without shouting, while long maturation brings harmony. What remains is the unmistakable sense of composure: a spirit shaped by place, method and generations of cellar discipline.Gautier
