history
Nestled on 102 hectares of sunny limestone hills in the heart of the Fins Bois cru, Leyrat Cognac embodies the pure expression of its terroir. Produced exclusively from a single estate, each eau-de-vie is crafted with meticulous care, offering finesse, balance, and aromatic depth. Part of the Abécassis family estates – one of the leading independent producers in Cognac – Leyrat is internationally recognized, with numerous awards including Cognac Producer of the Year (IWSC, London). Featured on the menus of Michelin-starred restaurants, Leyrat has become a true reference for connoisseurs seeking authenticity and refinement.
Vineyard
The estate covers 102 hectares on a chalky limestone hilltop at 154 meters of altitude in Claix, in the heart of the Fins Bois cru. The vineyard is planted with 100% Ugni Blanc, with an average vine age of 43 years. The terroir combines hard limestone from the Jurassic era and soft limestone from the Cretaceous, bringing minerality and structure to the eaux-de-vie.
Winemaking
Harvested grapes undergo alcoholic and malolactic fermentation on site in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks. Distillation takes place in small, onion-shaped copper stills of 25 hectoliters. Ageing occurs first in new French oak barrels for 4 to 6 months, then in older Limousin oak casks, ensuring complexity and balance.
Tasting notes
Assemblage N°1 reveals a golden yellow color. The nose opens with aromas of jam, soft spices, and delicate woody notes lifted by a touch of vanilla. The palate is smooth and elegant, developing fruity and round flavors with a slightly spicy and woody finish. 42% Vol.
Food pairing
Enjoyed neat, this Cognac also shines in refined cocktails. The "Scally Cognac Cocktail" blends Assemblage N°1 with Scotch whisky, Bénédictine, bitters, and fresh lime juice for a sophisticated twist.
