The Martell House | Connaissance Des Arts

Stepping through the portal of Maison Martell, in Cognac, is entering into a tale. The tale of a man, Jean Martell, who, in 1715, the very year of Louis XIV's reign, founded his trading house. The tale of a House that, through generations, perpetuates the spirit of its founder: demanding standards, patience, collective effort. The tale of the age-old expertise of vine growers, winegrowers, distillers, coopers, and cellar masters, of men and women who know that time remains their most reliable ally. The tale of an endearing terroir, rolling over gentle hills, with vineyards bearing poetic names: Grande Champagne, Petite Champagne, Borderies, Fins Bois. The tale of a House born in the 15th century - with Versailles as its emblem - celebrating its tercentenary this year, offering the gold of its heritage to the future: cognacs crafted with sometimes daring choices, with a distinct recognizable style. A tale in progress that this special edition invites you to explore, to discover, and, who knows, to savor.
