The History
Founded in 1810 in Angeac, the Maison Lhéraud embodies the artisanal excellence of Charentais cognac. Faithful to the family tradition, it elaborates vintage cognacs of a rare authenticity, distilled in a Charentais alembic and naturally aged in its blonde stone cellars. The 1967 vintage, originating from the Bons Bois cru, reflects the patient know-how of a house that lets time shape perfection.
The Vinification
Distilled in 1992, this Bons Bois Cognac has aged for many years in Limousin oak barrels, without addition or reduction. The maritime terroir of the Bons Bois cru confers a fruity and slightly saline personality to the eau-de-vie (spirit). The slow interaction between the wood and the cognac has enriched the texture and developed fine aromas of vanilla, sweet spices, and dried fruits, sublimated by a subtle and elegant rancio.
The Tasting
The brilliant amber robe announces a cognac of great smoothness. On the palate, the Lhéraud Bons Bois Cognac 1992 reveals a velvety texture and a remarkable harmony between power and elegance. Woody and toasted aromas interlace with nuances of eucalyptus, fine spices, and delicate rancio. The long and warm finish leaves a persistent imprint of dried fruits and noble wood. A vintage of balance and finesse, to be slowly savored to perceive all its depth.

France
La Nouvelle-Aquitaine est la plus vaste région viticole de France, s’étendant de Poitiers à Pau, en passant par des territoires emblématiques comme Bordeaux, Cognac, Agen ou Bergerac. Elle abrite une diversité de terroirs exceptionnelle, portée par des siècles de savoir-faire viticole et distillatoire, qui en font le berceau de spiritueux parmi les plus renommés au monde.
Au nord, en Charente et Charente-Maritime, on élabore le célèbre Cognac, issu de la double distillation de vins blancs, et le Pineau des Charentes, un vin de liqueur alliant moût de raisin et jeune cognac, apprécié pour sa fraîcheur et sa rondeur.
Plus au sud, dans le Gers, les Landes et le Lot-et-Garonne, on produit l’Armagnac, la plus ancienne eau-de-vie de France. Distillé traditionnellement en alambic continu, il se décline en trois zones : Haut-Armagnac, Ténarèze et Bas-Armagnac. Ces trois terroirs reposent sur le cône alluvial de Lannemezan, un sol ancien formé de sables, argiles et galets, issus de l’érosion des Pyrénées. Ils donnent naissance à des eaux-de-vie expressives, élégantes et nuancées, aux arômes de fruits mûrs, d’épices douces et de fruits secs, révélés au fil du vieillissement en fût.
