FANCY A TIPPLE
Below are all the famous names for Cognac. Have a look, but remember, we also have many excellent Chateau's who create their very own wines and brandy not to forget the speciality of the region Pineau Charentais. Red or white this really needs to be drank cold . Try it with the famous Charentais melon, take a half melon, cut out the pips, fill the hole with the Pineau Charentais of your choice... and ENJOY.
Maybe Pineau Charentais is one of the many reasons we in the Charente Maritime smile so much
