Cognac Lhéraud Millésime 1994 - Petite Champagne

Introducing Maison Lhéraud

📜 Since 1680, the Lhéraud family has been cultivating 85 hectares of vineyards (Ugni Blanc, Colombard, Folle Blanche) in Angeac, at the heart of the Petite Champagne cru — renowned for its roundness, floral finesse (notably violet), and aging potential. The eaux-de-vie are aged in five vaulted cellars built from blond stone, exclusively in Limousin oak barrels, without reduction or additives, to preserve the purity and authenticity of the terroir.

About the Lhéraud 1994 Petite Champagne Vintage

🥃 This 1994 Petite Champagne Vintage is a remarkable single-cru cognac, produced from a single harvest and aged uninterrupted for nearly 30 years. It is bottled at 48% ABV and presented in a signature Lhéraud wooden case. Its deep amber color with copper highlights reflects careful aging and outstanding quality.
