AboutMaison Gautier
Maison Gautier traces its roots to 1644, when Charles Gautier married Jacquette Brochet, the daughter of winegrowers in Aigre. The family obtained a royal warrant to produce Cognac in 1700 and received its founding charter in 1755.
The house occupies a former water mill on the River Osme, where water flowing beneath the cellars keeps the air naturally humid as the Cognac matures. Its blends bring together spirits from different Cognac growing districts.
Maison Gautier VSOP Cognac 750 mL
French Cognac
Honey, fig and vanilla lead a rounded, generous profile, with candied fruit and floral notes adding lift. A blend of eaux-de-vie from Petite Champagne, Fins Bois and Bons Bois brings measured oak and spice beneath the fruit, giving the palate richness without excessive weight. The texture is supple and harmonious, moving from ripe sweetness into a long, structured finish of spice and wood. Serve neat in a tulip-shaped glass, or with a single large cube after dinner.
Maison Gautier Pinar del Rio XO Cognac
French Cognac
Powerful oak and orange lead an intense, aromatic opening. The palate builds with dried fruit and layered spice, while firmer woody tones give the blend structure and persistence. Eaux-de-vie from Fins Bois, Petite Champagne and Grande Champagne contribute both strength and fruit, with the oldest component reaching 45 years. Rich and full rather than sweet, the finish remains long, spicy and oak-led. Serve neat.
