Good morning ! My name is Frédéric Bourgoin. I define myself as a terroirist winemaker and alchemist on the run. My 25 ha vineyard in “Organic Agriculture” conversion is located near Angoulême (Charente, France). The Bourgoin family wine adventure began in 1930 but bottled marketing is much more contemporary: 11/21/2015. Today my bottles are present on more than 150 Michelin-starred restaurants in France (and at the Elysée!). My natural cognacs are: unassembled, unsweetened, without added colorings, and unfiltered. Both young and authentic, my winemaking approach to the cognac category is unique in Charente. Come meet me, the truth is at the bottom of the bottle! 4 people minimum for any reservation.
ity allows you to discover the history, know-how and secrets of the Bourgoin family to the rhythm of a modern and refined scenography. You will have the opportunity to pass through our authentic aging cellar still in operation, our distillery where the history of cognac will be explained to you. The wine-growing approach, the wine map as well as soil and geology will complete the technical explanations concerning the details of our products. The highlight of this journey is the tasting which allows you to grasp the nuances: - Grape Brandy 2018, 38%vol. - Cognac Double-Lie 2010, 45%vol. - Cognac Brut de Fût 1998, 53%vol. - Pineau des Charentes White, 17%vol. - Verjuice, pH 2.5 - Grape Sugar, 65 brix - Grapeseed oil
The adventure begins here! To easily find the secret entrance to the estate, you will need to follow the “Bourgoin Cognac” signs in the heart of the free village of Tarsac.
