Cognac Lhéraud Millésime 1990 - Petite Champagne

Introduction to Maison Lhéraud

📜 Since 1680, the Lhéraud family has been cultivating 85 hectares of vineyards (Ugni Blanc, Colombard, Folle Blanche) in Angeac (Charente), within the prestigious Petite and Grande Champagne crus. The eaux-de-vie are naturally aged in four to five vaulted cellars made of blonde stone, in Limousin oak barrels, without reduction or additives — a guarantee of pure terroir expression and ancestral know-how.
