The name Château de Montifaud is historically linked to the land where the distillery sits. A castle used to be located there, which is why the word “château” is permitted to be used, a rarity in Cognac.
Documents show that the Vallet family has been making Cognac here since 1837, though the family believes production started even earlier. Sixth generation Laurent Vallet currently runs the business, taking over from his father Michel in 2010.

The vineyard stretches over 75 hectares in the two premier regions of cognac area: In the “Grande” and “Petite Champagne” whose soil contains a very great amount of active limestone. Thanks to this exceptional land, Château Montifaud possesses an extremely high potential for quality.

Vine flower and fruity taste (pear,apple). Powerful but round, supple and smooth. Not aggressive, no bitterness and not too much tannin. A great balance!
