About the Séguin family

The Vieux Souchot (Roland Seguin)

Organic since 1982

The Cognac region is located in the west of France, north of Bordeaux. It is located about 30 minutes north of the center by car, in a quiet, flat area surrounded by vineyards. The Séguin family has been farming for generations. The maritime climate from the Atlantic Ocean provides a mild climate throughout the year, allowing the grapes to grow without over-ripening. In 1982, they made the switch, thinking about the natural environment and their customers. The Séguin family's cognac is made from white wine made from organically grown grapes, distilled twice, and aged in oak barrels. They maintain a production method that does not use any flavorings, colorings, or additives, which makes it stand out from regular brandy. They also produce red and white wines, which are rare in the Cognac region.
