Wine Growers and Distillers for 150
years...such is the Family BOUTINET motto. The vineyard
covers 68 acres set in the Cognac Fins Bois are, which is reknown for producing high
quality Cognac more effectively than other crus.
From generation to generation, the vines have been established on the best soil
of the Estate, deep and soft. Ugni Blanc and Columbard give their best when harvesting
time comes and the vine is made in the estate winery with all the craft, attention and
tradition by Bernard BOUTINET and his son Pierre.
Part of the more sweetened Columbard grape juice mixed with Cognac will produce
Pineau des Charentes blanc, when juices of Merlot and Cabernet are added to Cognac it will
result in the Pineau des Charentes rosé. |
New Product: 
Though the vineyard has been on this estate for nearly two centuries, though the
art of distillation has been passed down for more than four generations, Bernard BOUTINET
has added a new dimension by bottling and selling his own Cognac and Pineau des Charentes
direclty from his Estate.
The label emblem "La Calèche" has become the mark of originality and
quality of Boutinet's Cognac and Pineau des Charentes. This is Charente image, a little
mysterious and secret behind the high walls surrounding the Estate, proud of a rich
historical past. As Boutinet's labels wants to be sober, discret and elegant.
When BOUTINET VSOP Cognac shows
itself direct and gently perfumed, Napoléon, XO, and Extra
reveal their richness and complexity only after a tender moment of complicity in your
hand. Then you reach a marvellous world of warm touches of honey and gingerbread. You
appreciate perfect harmony between alcohol and sweetened flavours.
Beside his traditionnal oak barrel matured Cognac Bernard BOUTINET offers a
suprising "Coeur de Fins Bois"
being matured in very old casks, it has very little tanin and leaves pure all the perfumes
and fragrances from the grapes and vines. Very light eau de vie and being nearly without
tannins it allows also to be appreciated as a long drink on ice or with tonic.
Wine growers and originality.
