Cherves Richemont
Borderies

Located in northern Cognac, this village belongs to the very specific Borderies Cru or region. Representing only 5% of the vine harvest, these cognacs are renowned for their floral profile.

The 2010 vintage benefitted from predictable seasonal climates, allowing the grapes to be harvested at full maturity at the end of September. Distilled using traditional methods then aged in barrels selected from a range of coopers, toasts and grains, these eaux de vie offer a rich and complex palate of aromas.

ON THE PATH TO SINGLE VILLAGES

Cognac is divided into 6 crus or regions. Each cru has its own terroir - an expression of the soil, subsoil, climate, vines and man's expertise.
One village, represented by a craft distiller has been selected from all these regions, singled out for its unique, authentic and exceptional style.
